I usuaully do a few slower solves, but still fast enough to work the fingers, then in between those I do random PLL's for a bit. Then after a few, I start doing timed solves.
It's like that for basically any step that requires an alg to solve it. You learn the alg, and then use it so many times until it becomes second nature. I changed my v perm and kept using it even though it was worse than my other one at the time. Now that I'm used to it, it is much faster. Same...
Take it ALL the way apart. Until you get to that pseudo 3x3 in the center. Then move one of those and fit lube in. Then loosen the 3 screws of the pseudo 3x3 just a little (45-180 degrees). Work around the lube a little bit in the pseudo 3x3. Put lube on the ball core itself. Then full...
You have lots of pauses. I would go on and rabble on what to improve on, but it would be completely redundant due to the fact that hundreds (if not more) have been in your exact situation and have recieved the same advice. Just search through the internet and look for tips.

It depends on how willing you are. If you feel like spending multiple hours modding a v-6 to perfection do it. If you are like me, get an ss. The reason why I don't want to mod my v-6 is that I would want to do a perfect job, and with the way my ss 5x5 ended up, I decided it would be best not to...

Tensioned it.
Solved it A LOT. (It was my first speedcube)
Stickers wore off > put on a set of half bright cubesmith
Put Lubix on the pieces and it is super smooth.
(I've had this for a...
