How to change SKSpriteNode size and colour in didBeginContact without SKTexture?

I have been changing SKSpriteNode colour and size within didBeginContact in the following way, using an SKTexture.

if firstBody.categoryBitMask == spriteCategory && secondBody.categoryBitMask == enemyCategory    {
     var newSprite = firstBody.node
     let newImage = SKTexture(imageNamed: "newSprite.png")
     (newSprite as? SKSpriteNode)?.size = newImage.size() //magic
     oldToNewSpriteAction = SKAction.setTexture(newImage)
     newSprite!.runAction(oldToNewSpriteAction)
 }

Now I am creating a sample code without SKTextures, setting my SKSpriteNodes in the following way:

oldSprite = SKSpriteNode(color: SKColor.blueColor(), size: oldSpriteSize)
newSprite = SKSpriteNode(color: SKColor.BrownColor(), size: newSpriteSize)

How can I change the sprite colour and size within didBeginContact without SKTextures?

This should work

newSprite.color = UIColor.redColor()
newSprite.size = CGSize(width: 250, height: 250)
