Below is a polymetric snippet (eighth = eighth on the two staves). After the snippet I would like to continue with "polymetric turned off" -- that is, 6/8 on both staves
you just need to write `\time 6/8` in both staves and write the rest of the music. Removing the Timing_translator from Score and consisting it in Staff *allows* you to use different time signatures in the staves, but it does not prevent you from using the same time signature in both.
and barlines connecting them.
For this you need to include the staves in a StaffGroup, in a GrandStaff or in a PianoStaff.
I'd like to add that it is better to keep the \relative as close as possible to the notes. E.g. if you add more notes to the first staff, using \relative like you did you'll very likely need to fix the octave of the first note of the second staff.
See below your example with the requested additions and a wiser use of \relative.
Best wishes.
