Hello,

DSpace 6.3 supports upgrading from any prior version of DSpace.  So, you
should not need to use any special import process, provided that you were
able to retain a copy of the main [dspace] folder (especially the
"assetstore") and retain a copy of the database (where all the metadata is
stored).  Here's the DSpace 6.x upgrade instructions, and these should work
fine when pointed at a database from DSpace 4.x and an old [dspace] folder.

If you have more specific questions, let us know on this mailing list.
