Are you sure about the clutch-type in the RS transmissions? I just had the axle out of my WQFE and it looked like the viscous-style CV. I was under the impression that the clutch-type diff was strictly an over-the-counter part.
It seems MD743362 is the 64-tooth open diff crown wheel, and MD743363 is the 64-tooth viscous crown wheel
2224 (GSR) shows *NO DATA* for the LSD assembly and MD743362 for ring gear - would be WQGE
2225 (RS) shows *NO DATA* for the LSD assembly and MD743362 for the ring gear - would be WQYE
2226 (RS) shows MD738900 for the LSD assembly and MD743363 for the ring gear - is WQFE
2227 (GSR) shows MD738900 for the LSD assembly and MD743363 for the ring gear - would be WQWE
The GSR and RS seemed to both have the same optional LSD assembly and ring gear.
A user on a Galant forum claims this is MD738900 from the catalog (it does look new and it's definitely a viscous) - http://img.galantvr4.org/116000/116397-0-0-0.jpg

The catalog says RA734076S1 is the part number for the Ralliart LSD. Going through old catalogs, it seems that the Ralliart LSD was intended for the CA4A Mirage and was discontinued over 10 years ago.
The earliest GSR - 0001 - had a viscous LSD (MD738900) and MD743363 ring gear.
The earliest RS - 0009 - had an open diff and MD743362 ring gear.
The super early E1 box you've seen is indeed an anomaly. It would be nice to have the VIN of the car it came off of. There is a weird gap between 0013 and 0200, no data for these cars at all.
All Evo 2s I've checked are showing the same ring gear part numbers as Evo 1. The last Evo 2 GSR - 6582 - is showing MD743362, same with the last RS - 6565. The LSD cars are showing MD743363 (GSR 6562 and RS 6548). FWIW, I have a Ralliart LSD here with the 64-tooth open diff crown wheel on it, it came from an Evo 2.
The first Evo 3, an RS with the open diff, is showing MD744332 for the pinion, a 63-tooth gear.
There might be some confusion with VIN numbers. All Evo 1s are CD9A, all Evo 2s are CE9A-000xxxx and all Evo 3s are CE9A-010xxxx
Evo 1s were built - 10/1992 to 03/1993
Evo 2s were built - 01/1994 to 03/1994
Evo 3s were built - 01/1995 to 08/1995
I think the first 15 or so VINs for each generation were for factory usage and have odd build dates. VINs start at 0201 for production cars.
