a thowout berring is a..thowout berring. its a very simple product. i very highly doubt that mazdaspeeds is any better than an average one. there is no way performance is goona change. the only problems people have is that some berrings doesnt fit properly and it makes odd sounds

You'll get an SKF t/o bearing with most clutch kits. SKF is as good or better than OEM - so unless you need just a bearing, use the SKF bearing in your kit.

If you have doubts regarding the quality of the bearing that came with your clutch kit, just post what brand it is.
