Not sure I understand what you mean by "main" difference or your use of the word "you're", but the most important differences are how light and how robust this AP kit is compared to standard Brembo, Stoptech and other aftermarket BBK's.

I've run a few iterations of the 380 GT kit, it's not even a close comparison. AP crushes it.

Benefits over the 380GT BBK:
  1. Significant reduction of un-sprung weight!!!
  2. Higher rotor vane count
  3. Significant reduction of time and effort to swap pads
  4. There are no dust boots to have to "maintain"
  5. no paint-chipped calipers to contend with
  6. Significant increase in caliper clearance inside wheel barrel (more wheel options)
  7. Unwavering consistency on track (using AP w DS1.11's vs. 380GT w multiple pad configs.)
  8. Did I mention light weight?!!

This list goes on and on...Jeff and others can probably add to this.
Watch the videos above, they do a great job of explaining all of the details.
