All I wanted to say was that the work that you native speakers are doing to fix errors in Spanish Lite is inspiring and awesome!
Currently, Kuroshima is making all the work! ;-)

I would bet they are good enough. Much better than this.

All in all, I think after all this error checking you are doing, it would be suitable to do an overall revision of the whole text (including boxes and tables) for better cohesion.

Definitely, a "right" translation of GURPS Lite to Spanish will ease the approaching of GURPS 4 ed to Spanish-speaking players. So, I'm looking forward to it.
