flywheel compatibility inquiry

can someone tell me if i can use an S5/S6 flywheel with an S4 turbo engine?

i know the s4 have different internals from the s5/s6, but mazdatrix lists the flywheel as 86-95 turbo flywheels with the same part number...so i'm unsure about whether or not they're compatible.

why am i asking?
because i messed up my flywheel trying to get it off my dead engine..

can someone with experience in this specific issue help me out?

thanks.

If stock, you'll need the flywheel from the series engine, If S4 use a S4 flywheel, etc.

If you'll notice on the Mazdatrix site, the light steel flywheels, and aluminum flywheels with the counterweight are different between the S4 and S5.
As the aftermarket flywheel is the same for all the years on the site, the difference is the counterweights between the series.
