Just wondering if there a difference between the Speed3 Rear endlinks and a regular Mazda3 endlinks?

other then the obvious price and part-numbers?

Yes, I know for a fact that the screw which attaches to the swaybar is 2mm bigger on the Mazdaspeed3 one.

+1.

The bolt that connects the endlink to the frame those is the same (10mm or so).

Basically what TW FG2 said is probably the main purpose for the bolt. Extra support for the larger sway bar.

I'm just making up a spacer to reduce the hole size on the OEM MS3 bar to match the stock MZ3 bar to take up the slack on the stock endlink bolt.
