The SE has larger, vented brakes as opposed to the standard GSL smaller, solid rotors.
The SE has a 40mm offset
The SE has a different, slightly stiffer spring rating
When I bought my swaybars from Racing Beat they asked if it's going on an SE, which indicates different swaybar mounting points (if not a stiffer stock swaybar on the SE)

The swaybars have the same mounting points. The only reason they ask you is that so you don't get something smaller since the GSL-SE has a bigger swaybar in front.

Also, dependant on the year of GSL you're comparing to the SE, the mounting points on the chasis for the rear trailing links was moved 20mm lower to reduce tail happiness. This change was started on the 84 SE, and I believe was moved to all models in 1985.
