Rarest Parts?

Taking a leaf out of Woody's book this late evening, and the salad has got me pondering.

What is the rarest of all rare jdm/usdm 3rd gen parts across the board? I'm talking oem or aftermarket parts and accessories, not one off custom things.

Is it some hilux fleek'ness I don't know about? Or is it the jdm FMU? What about some thing dealer installed? Is it something I've never heard of?

What is the answer all I can think about is house of cards right now. Thoughts and opinions to help me find the next thing I can't live without.

JDM Recarro seats?

We had a white SSR-G in Afghanistan that had some cool stuff in it. Factory nav (it didn't work), Recaro seats, a fancy 3 spoke steering wheel (probably aftermarket, but it looked like it belonged), the rear spoiler w/ fold down mirror (didn't work), tire carrier on the back (with no spare), and 3 really neat Enkei wheels that I'd love to have. The 4th wheel was the spare =)

It was a very cool little ride until the day it stopped running. Replaced with a 120 chassis Prado. We were living good after that.

There was a Tundra TRD big brake kit with two piece rotors, it is super rare! I think they were six piston calipers.
Sadly many years ago before I knew they would fit 4runners I saw a set on my local craigslist for 300 I wish I had bought those!

I thought this would pick up more traction. Does Australia get JDM cars or their own brand Toyotas? A lot of the hilix FMUs come from NZ..
