The USDM RS Evo gearbox does not, in fact, have RS specific gear ratios. The USDM RS model Evos share the wider spaced ratos found on the USDM GSR 5-spd.

AFAIK, for non-US markets, there are three different RS gearboxes available from the factory. There is a "short" box, a "medium" box, and a "long" box. You will find more info on LancerRegister as the British cousins do have access to all three RS boxes. I am not sure whether the only difference between the three levels of RS boxes is strictly dependent on different final drive ratios or the cogs themselves are actually spaced differently.
