The interior walls that the fluid sloshes against are closer to OEM, supposedly better for the diff, and it comes with 2 mounts. You can price in a separate diff brace to get a closer comparison, since that's closer to what the second mounting point is like.
Yup I realise this now, but as I said, Gtek is not available anymore, and most likely discontinued according to the Gtek guys down here.

I bought a Greddy twin bolt extended diff cover for my race Z - about same cost as Z1 unit once freight, credit card exchange rate exploit and tax included.

You can use money transfer like OFX when making purchase from overseas. Much better exchange rates than banks, credit cards and paypal.

I just ordered $4.5K AU worth of Varis body kit parts from Bulletproof Automotive, and saved about $150 AU using OFX to make the payment over PP or bank transfer.
