I'd like to know how well Nikyo and sankyo work against grips.

Yeah, me too!
Especially nikkyo. I was watching some judo matches on tape, and I noticed that everybody starts out by coming in to quickly grab gi at both shoulders. It is like this is the generic beginning. The thing is, from my simple non-judo point of view, it looks like this is just begging for a nikkyo!
One of the simplest aikido techniques that I know is nikkyo urawaza from shoulder grabs (one shoulder, or in this case, both shoulders). Just grab the hand that grabs your shoulder, and then it is just 2 quick hip movements and you have a strong nikkyo.
What do you think? Or is nikkyo illegal in judo?
