I know a lot of guys have done this and half a millimetre doesn't sound much but there isn't a lot of plastic on the gearcase framework in places. I've swapped out the Tamiya items on the front end for some 3.5mm x 25mm screws from eBay - they are bigger headed and posidrive heads - the head area is probably twice that of the kit items, and the cotact area for the driver significantly increased. I didn't even have to grease the threads to get these in and no problems whatsoever with head damage.
