Despite being 'just' 1mm there could be other differences like wall thicknesses. Thee bars are probably hollow, making they seem less substantial between looking at the two. Example, the nismo sway bars for the 350z looked identical to the stock one except for being painted but tube wall thickness was majorly different.

Just installed this on my UL. Not sure if any others have written any reviews for this on the UL but I like it so far. Firms up the rear end and reduced bump steer and slightly less roll. Not a huge difference but I would estimate between 15 - 20 percent firmer. 
48812-50130 for the bar
48818-50020 for the sports bushings
Edit: I just got back from a 5 mile drive on the highway and one of the most positive effects is the reducing in what I call highway rear sway. Given the UL's with air suspension ride different vs the standard shock, I would notice that in normal mode the rear end would tend to sway a little back and forth under certain conditions. For instance, if the highway has some uneven wearing between the two areas the tires are riding on is when you would feel this motion. It is now almost non existent! I'm really happy with this simple OEM mod.

My rear bushings are squeaky and thought I had the OEM regular swaybar since you and others on these forums said you upgraded your UL's rear swaybars to the sport model, but for 2002, it seems if there was any swaybar installed, it was already the sport swaybar. Can you or anyone else offer clarifications? Thanks!
