Nah that's way too much effort. 

Like I could replace 200 bolts, or do one thing like remove the ABS pump for same amount of weight haha. 

Ultimately though I still want to go do some trackdays in this, and keep it road going. Not super specialize as a drag car.

But there will probably be another 40 pages worth of barrying going on.

I dont see how it's any more likely to happen than before though? I'm still using the clutch, just not letting off the gas. 
I dont think I've ever accidentally shifted into 1st going for 3rd.
I think the absolutely chooched synchros wouldnt allow that anyway haha.
Ahh well, good thing that motors are cheap :D

I wasn't suggesting it's more likely with the new setup, I'm just picturing it happening.

For some reason it is too easy to hit reverse instead of fourth in my brother's capri (some modern falcon gearbox), hell of a grinding noise

Altezza gearbox is super annoying for this sort of thing, 
Reverse is off to the left, and up. 
So sometimes you're in third trying to get down to 2nd, and you push it right across out of the gate and try shift down into nothing there. 
Bloody annoying!
