Yes that is correct for the first generation of GT II (Which I have), they revised the wastegate flapper for the "Kai" version.

I got some info from Tyler who has rebuilt a GT2. He said the wheels are equivalent to FP Green and the shaft is thicker (maybe 50% larger in diameter). But HKS design isn't anything like the normal MHI.

It seems like the GT III is not BB like GT II from reading the description.
