Major 3VZ-E to 22RE

Here’s the scoop. I’m replacing the 3VZ-E A/T drive train from a 1995 4runner to a 22RE MT from a 1992 4runner.

The 95 4runner has a toast drivetrain but it will start and move around the driveway.
The 1992 4runner was an amazing all manual Toyota and was given to me by my father-in-law with a 7 month old 22RE until a drunk driver pulled out into oncoming traffic and the rest is history.

Theres no talking me out of the swap, I’ve read the pros and cons all day long with going to “Less Hp, just swap a 3.4.....” that’s out of the question. I know about the engine mounts, trans cross member and driveshafts will all need to go with the 22RE into the 95 4runner. The part that has me stumped is swapping the ECU into the all electric optioned 1995 from an all manual optioned 1992. Swapping JB the engine side of the harness is cake, but I’m not so sure about the rest of the “cabin wiring”. Help would be great. I’ve got some standard schematics, they just don’t have pin identification at the ECU for my 1992 22RE. Andy help/guidance would be great!!

P.S. I was going to originally swap the front clip from the 95 to the 92 until I found extensive frame damage on the 92 when I removed all the damaged front end body damage (core support, fender support etc)
