This has been a problem over the years with just upgrades.

there is no easy solution to that problem as you would need to have a cross reference table with the old and new links then use an htaccess rule to foward people to the new thread. (if you are running under linux and apache)
now this is possibe but will need a bit of coding and modification of the actual thread importer.
you might want to post a job offer in the dev for hire forum when you do actually decide to migrate the forums. (or contact me directly
)
