In general yes, but looking at ETKA, it seems that some EX engines - up to Chassis number 53-E-004 327 - had the 200 mm clutch and others - from Chassis number 53-E-004 328 - had the 210 mm clutch.
Also check whether you have the 200 mm or the 210 mm flywheel - same chassis number details as above.
If you are just replacing the friction disc, make sure you get the correct size for your existing pressure plate.
I found that someone had fitted a a 200 mm friction disc to a 210 mm pressure plate on my GTX which had worn a lip in the flywheel, so replacing with a 210 mm disc would not have mated properly.
