Default Is my miata an R Package?

I've got a 1994 miata. It as several features that align with the description of the R Package:

1. Has the factory wing on the trunk
2. Has front lip and rear valence
3. No power steering
4. 7 spoke wheels
5. yellow bilsteins
6. 20mm front sway bar

The big deal here is I'm wondering if I've got a torsen differential! I don't have access to a jack yet to check the differential. Car had a single owner before me, and I doubt the 50 year old lady had the R package added/swapped in so it seems all original. What do you guys think?

Contact Mazda North America customer service with the VIN and they'll confirm the original spec of the car.

This.

Probably an R package though.
