Why the hell has my GR got a 4 pin alternator?

Just dropped it in to get the alternator swapped to the one I bought off sebastian.

Apparently my GR has a 4 pin alternator in it.

WTF?

Just bought a recon from Camskill.

This thing looks brand new, I cant figure out how they can get the thing looking like that. Not after seeing the alt that came out of my car and the second hand parts.
