as long as you rev-match there shouldnt be too much of a problem. But if you decide to be a stunna and not rev-match your syncros beg will for mercy.

Well if it happens when you're racing, it definatly isn't good. It depends on the condition of your motor if anything serious will happen, but that's a lot of abuse for an engine, so make sure the miss shifts don't happen too often.

it depends on what speed youre going in fourth.

if youre going 100mph and downshift to 2nd, revmatch or not, thats bad.

like 35mph, to 2nd, then you should be fine.

depends on your rev limit, tranny, and speed.
