Questions about Upping My Speed

[PBKrieger]

I've got a 2k3 Speed and am about to get a G7. I'm interested in upping the old Speed as a back up. My questions are these:


Do 05 Speed Sticky Grips fit on the previous Space Frame? I'd like to put the 05 Grip on the sideof the grip opposite the LCD screen. Has anyone does it? Does it look like a$$ or what?
If I Fly my speed and get the Laser eyes, will the Newton Valve still help?


Thanks for your input!

the grips will fit, people have done it but ive never seen some one do just one side, you would have to cut the old ones, and unless you do it clean it would look like poop. as per the other two upgrades i have both and they do two very different things to ure gun, flying it will make it faster and reduce chops to nothing, and is a very reliable upgrade, the newton can be a bit picky if not set up properly, but the purpose of the upgrade is to enhance the mechanical or phnumatic operation of the gun reducing kick, and gaining efficiency. if ure getting the newton i highly recomend you get it installed by a pro, cuz its a pain, because its a back up i would say get the fly conversion, and shot it to see if you can handle the kick, if so dont bother with newton. in my speed i have the fly conversion, and i only use the delrin hammer, and not the valve or lpr.

Good call my friend. I never had a real problem with kicking actually. Considering that I shoot rifles on a regular basis, I just thought it might be cool to have zero kick. I'll Fly it for sure and decide whether or not to add the Newton after I compare it with my G7. Thanks for the tip about cutting the grips. I'll probably buy another pair of grips just in case I screw up the cut.

fixmyangel has black grips that are actually black unlike the grey factory ones which look alot better on the black dust speed btw.

The only black ones I see are for the 45 degree frames. If anyone else has black Space Frame grips I'm definately interested.
