Default Luk clutch kit pressure plate brand

Im working on changing the rear main seal on my 94. The previous owners gave me a stack of receipts detailing that the clutch was changed in the last 20k miles. I figured it was a 3rd part aftermarket as it didn't feel like the Exedy clutches I had in my NB. After pulling the trans today, I found an NTK throwout bearing, Exedy pressure plate, and Luk friction disk.

I know Luk and Exedy both make quality parts, but I find the combo weird. I would rather not have mix matched stuff. Does anyone know if Luk just uses the exedy pressure plate and this is the way it came in the kit, or did someone do some cobbling together at some point?
Thanks!

Can't find any info, if Luk builds pressure plates for the Miata.
Buy Sachs, if you only need OE replacement, they build their own stuff 100%. Feels amazing

Thanks for looking into it. My fallback is just to get the Exedy kit since its only $130 at rock auto. Thanks!

Or exedy, yeah, doesn't really matter.

Over the years I found out, that Sachs have a pretty light feel to them, some people really like that feeling in these lighter cars, so do I, when only stock power or just a tad over is all you want
