What does Pengy Timer look like and where can i get it?
I have like 30+ 3x3 stage normally, and I average 1:30
Learn Yau
When I do Redux, I have like 16 centres? With Yaudux I have like 35 centres, 20 edges, 35 3x3 stage :s (that's taking parity into account.)
Edit: Hope that answered your question Sub 30 centres is easily good enough for sub 2. Sub 2 is easy lol.
More like sub 40 centres. Yau would be great but the keyhole style last 4 centres is a little awkward I think.
Keyhole style? Lolwut? Centres are easy like this, it just takes a little longer.
Anyway, you could do centres exactly the same as Redux, if you setup the unsolved cross edge to be where you're turning. I think my centres are about the same, or only slightly slower than Redux centres. The thing that slows me from 16 to 35 (it's prolly more like 18 to 32 now that I think about it) is building the first 3 cross edges.
My final suggestion? Learn Yau IMO makes 4x4 more fun, less frustrating, and also, as a result of it being more fun, I improve faster because I practise more.

When I do Yau, sometimes I'll get parity on my last edges that need to be paired. How do you fix this without screwing up the cross?
Whats the best way to dissolve the super glue in my 6x6, I need to replace a pin but I cant get the glue out.

A quick bit of research gives that acetone is the best (and only, it seems) way to dissolve super glue. Problem is, acetone may damage your cube.

its layer by layer
its layer by layer
so what? is it fast or not? how slower is it than OKA?
and to add to what riffz said,
there is no such thing as a faster or slower method, its like saying how much "slower" is petrus than fredrich
If you want an oka tutorial, this is the best one ive seen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=045nrROkRRU
I personally hate Yau. I cant get the hang of getting the last 4 centers while keeping the partial cross intact. I like reduction and K4 (once i learn the algs)

This.
You can try to scrap out the dried out glue. That's what MMAp did
