I don't know for sure but I would assume any manual gearboxes would have a fair amount over engineering in them. It's the clutch that'll normally be the first to go if the power is too much to handle. Meaning it'll start slipping sooner during hard driving or launches.
If the clutch is upgraded with a stronger pressure plate and clutch plate, the problem should go away. The gears and synchromesh themselves seldom gives way unless you put like additional 100bhp on and launch the car brutally
I've only seen that on Subarus WRXs which are famous for weak gearboxes.
