Capacitor for the Japanese Market

I am going through the Yamaha M-50 Part List. It appears some of the ceramic caps were replaced for the Japanese market. Yamaha used Mica, Mylar, or PP instead of ceramic. I am thinking of following the same approach since the Yamaha designers believed it would make a difference.
For the ones replaced with Mica, should I be replacing with Mica, CG0 or Polypropylene (if available)?

If they are mica go with mica.. what is wrong with OEM parts ? Mica's are a very low failure rate component. Probably nothing wrong with them.
