Limit and No Limit are two completely different games.  One games habits do not really transfer over to the other.  Take limit for example.  People will call you down with bottom pair just to spike that second pair on the river and your AK gets beat by 79 because player knows you can't put him off the hand because you have a limit on your bet... 2 bets to call to the river encourages far more chasing rather than a no limit game you can make a player make a decision for ALL his money on the flop when you have a hand you dont want someone to chase you down on.  Most players seem to stick to one game or the other and starting range hands are far different between the two.  Limit poker you can expect anyone to come into the flop with any two cards where No Limit you get a feel for other players ranges on the hands that they call with preflop.  It's really all about experience with both games... one thing is for sure you can lose a lot of your bank a lot faster in NL than Limit but they can both be very profitable games... just depends on what you prefer to play!  Limit is a little slower paced and your decisions are a little less exhausting where No Limit you need to make careful decisions when calling big bets down to the end!

I really dont think that you need to be a good limit player to be a good No limit player because there are many many many accomplished No limit players that do not play limit at all.

Edit: and tournies and cash games are completely different as well... many apply a different set of tactics for each game...
