Not much is the short answer. The Japanese earthquake was associated with their subduction zone, whereas the Canterbury one was the re-activation of an old but previously unknown shear fault on the Canterbury Plains - in other words on the upper crust well away from the shear zone of the Alpine Fault.
In Lyttleton, there was a small tsunami, but essentially benign.
