No. You can use them together. GRP packages are only really a starting
point, any updates will be compile din the normal way. The quickest way
to get Gentoo installed is to do a Stage 3 install, then add anything
else you need from GRP. That should get everything done in an hour or two.

Then you can set your USE and CFLAGS, sync and do emerge -e world to
have everything updated and compiled the way you want it, while you
continue to use the computer.
