The issue is the manifold has wiggle room. Push it right and you get a over lapping, push left and the port matching is perfect. When installed you'll have remember which way to push so it perfectly smooth.
Maxbore are doing 179$ for each TB ? or for both ?

As far as I remember the 4x OEM TB I have has/had a full round main shaft but only flat at the head of the screws .. not where the thread are which was a full complete half round shaft...

I would be surprised if Nissan decided to make a different TB for the 370z.
