Well, here I thought I came up with a novel solution but it ends up I did the same as a couple of others on the board. A-F-Ka-S-
ZA and love it in my car. Great 1-2-3 for autocrossing, a stock(-6) 5th for highway cruising, and the 'S' fourth does a nice job bridging between 3rd and 5th so there isn't as much of a gap as I experienced in other cars with a flipped 5th and stock 4th gear.
Curious though if you're just using it for cruising, if you really want such a low 3rd gear. Its not bad, but unless you are really targeting a specific operating point (like I was for autocrossing) I'd look for a taller 3rd gear solution like an 'M'. Note also that its a big RPM drop from an 'S' 4th gear to the stock(-4) 'ZD' 5th gear; the RPM drop to a 'ZA' 5th from a -6 is quite manageable.
