EJ loom chopping

Good news: I've got an EJ for my L.
Bad news: it's an EJ18 that i can't find wiring diagrams for. There are manuals around for lots of similar vehicles, but none to match this very one.
Thoughts:
There are 48 wires out of the ECU. There are 33 wires going into the engine bay that should be kept. The remaining 15 out of the ECU must include:
There's gotta be an easier way. Any ideas?
BTW, here she is.
Sat it in the car today for a look - the mounts lined up nicely,there's heaps of room on each side (EJ18 is a fair bit narrower than EA82), but space at the front is going to be tight - fans will probably have to go in front of the rad.

- starter +ve (already identified)
- battery +ve (probably a yellow or yellow-red)
- ign +ve
- fuel pump (could just run off ign +ve)
- air con (which my car doesn't have)
- signals for the instrument cluster (not needed)
- what else?
