Angry Damn T5 and 3rd Gear!!

Do any of you guys have any tips for finding 3rd @ WOT???

The XR6 T5 in my EF makes it extremely difficult not to mention embarrasing!!

The synchro on 3rd is a bit worn, it grinds into gear occassionally when changed on redline. This doesn't really cause a problem though, it's finding the bloody gear. A quick change from 2nd usually results in 5th, 1st or slamming the limiter hard right at a crucial moment!

It's still got the stock shifter and the box is in really good nick except for the synchro, but I really don't think the synchro is what's causing the problem. Would a short shifter or something help??
