if the "new" MR is more sensitive than the old. If it is less sensitive, not much you can do about it.
Bottom line: look for a better (more approriate) replacement -- if you/your friend wish, go with a cheap generic replacement that's "close" in nominal parameters and physically fits (check PartsExpress, e.g.). Install and listen. If you/your friend can live with the result (e.g., until a proper replacement can be sourced), then do so. ;)
I've done the redneck, willy-nilly driver replacement thing before... a time or two. ;)
I am not proud of it, but sometimes "good enough" is good enough. "
all the best,
