Not sure where to start here as I have designed about 20 parts from scratch now for my car. I am kind of a neat freak and always want things to look stock and clean. The top few are probably the magnetic phone mounts, battery relocation setup, 3" brake duct nozzles / front bumper scoops, headlight duct and airbox (in progress), and my biggest forum treasure, a set of NISMO LMGT4 wheels that fit up perfectly. I'm still working on many of the writeups, but details on all of them here:

I'm a big fan of my Full-Race vertical intercooler. The design allows for the LICP to be about 6" long in total vs. a normal short route LICP at about 18". Great mod.

Intake

My favorite mod was a custom mix match of aluminum apexi maf intake adapted with an apexi adapter to a aem dryflow open filter. The end result is the loudest intake I have ever heard. Probably not good for an ounce of power but the sounds never get old!
(Oh and I don't have to buy non serviceable apexi filters anymore)

tephramod v7 is hands down my favorite mod. Launch maps, no lift to shift, cell flash on knock, alt maps and on and on. As for unusual, i don't see it mentioned often, but coming from a straight line car a short throw shifter was one of my first mods and im still loving it 10 years later

i would have to say the killerglass radiator hose is the only thing thats "unique" on my car. Gets a ton of attention, and the only reason i did it was so the radiator hose matched the color of my valve cover lol.

spoolin up cop really did that much for your car huh? how heavily modded were you before you did it? I've heard decent things but the price is high so I havent pulled the trigger.

My ARC Down Force Indicator! Not installed yet, but it has been discontinued for years, and I have a new one, in the box, ready to get installed.

My favorite mod is my ADVAN RS rims. They really give my IX-MR 'new' look...
