It sounds like some of those can be added directly to the force field via an
frcmod file (i.e. improper dihedrals). The others, just use the NMR
restraints and replicate it for each residue you want to apply it to if the
frcmod won't do the trick (or doesn't apply to your case).
You can also override GAFF force field definitions via an frcmod file if it
turns out they're not what they should be for your system.
