Migrate data, but not settings and templates

I have:
- An old 3.8.1 vBulletin forum with lots of post and data
- A new 3.8.1 vBulletin forum with an outdated (from copying the existing site in the first place) set of data but all the new templates, customisations and mods installed and ready to go.

I run PhotoPost and IBPArcade. I need to get all of the users, their posts, forums, etc over without destroying my customised setup. I believe the reason most people do not do this is because there is a better way with utilising templates and reinstalling mods. I have not got the luxury of performing this now.

I have written a data import/export script however I seem to miss quite a lot of fields - a fact I didn't notice until today. I have the ability to close either forum to get this data transferred and the publish the new site once this is done.

Cheers in advance.
