Re: Alpine White III 2.8 Eaton M62 build
I'm installing a wideband kit to monitor the fuelling as I've got a vortech fuel management unit put in. However I think it will need some sort of mapping to rescale the maf depending how it runs.

You need to drop it on the floor really to see what it's going to sit like. As said the wheels will camber in anyway when lowered so you may get away with them. Do you know what width and ET the new rims are?

Re: Headlights polishing problem
As said I used 1500 wet and dry however, if you've started with a 6 or an 800 you will probably have to work up the grades to get the scratches out. I polished up with 3M fine cutting compound, G3 would do it too. Also plenty of elbow grease
