Clutch release bearing-did I get the right one?
 
I'm in the middle of doing a clutch job on my GSLSE and I noticed that the new clutch release bearing is slightly different from the one I pulled off the transmission. The transmission on the car is from a S5 car, so I'm assuming that's why the bearing was different since Mazdatrix lists different part numbers for S3/S4's and S5 cars. The bearing I got was for the 83-88's and it seemed to go on the transmission just fine, and it moves like it's supposed with the clutch fork.

So my question is this, since I have the normal SE engine with a 2nd gen transmission, and I using the correct release bearing? Or does it even matter? I really didn't see much physical difference between the two parts myself, but I wanted to check before I got everything back together.

Use the one for the 83-88.
