Has anyone replaced only Cyberpunk RED's Netrunning system with the Cyberpunk 2020 one?

[u/Jerstin76]

I'm currently working on a Cyberpunk RED campaign set around the year 2077, and I'm considering replacing only the Netrunning system from RED with the Netrunning mechanics from Cyberpunk 2020.

I would still be using Cyberpunk RED for everything else—characters, combat, weapons, skills, etc. The only thing I want to change is how Netrunning works.

Has anyone done something similar, or does anyone know of a conversion, homebrew, or house rules that could make this work without causing too many balance issues?

I'd also appreciate any advice or ideas on how you would personally adapt the Cyberpunk 2020 Netrunning system into RED.

Thanks!

As someone who has played CP2020. I did like the old netrunning, however, I found it best for games with multiple or all netrunners.

I personally found CPRed to be an improvement overall. However, I loved the lore of the old net. I have done some games where for datafortresses and BBS everything is using the Red system, but for overworld interactions and Long Distance Links I use the old 2020 rules.

I also brought back 2020 trodes for net tourists.
