First of all there is no unanimous opinion on the asect of Rahu and Ketu,including its exaltation, debilitation and own house. These different opinion create confusion and hence a need of research.
Regarding aspect(talking about only Full-aspect) of Rahu-Ketu, opinions are:
1.They aspect 5th,7th,9th and 12th house from it.
2.3rd,7th and 10th(like shani)
3.Both have no aspect.
4.5h,7th,9th (mostly accepted)
First is from BPHS Bombay edition Shloka 1837,2nd from various books and researches. 3rd via view of Varahamihira, kalyana varma, Mantresvara and many other ancient scholars.
In books like Sanketnidhi and Horasara of Prithuyas which I have it,mentions Aspect of nodes while analysing charts.
According to to me, nodes have trine(special aspect apart from 7th,like that of sa(3,10) and ma(4,8) etc) aspects.The nodes are spiritual grahas. Fifth and ninth are the trine houses indicating mind, intelligence,religion, customs,past lives etc. So these two houses are very closely related to spiritual matters.Karma,spiritual life and nodes are also related to all the above factors.
In western/modern astrology astrology, the computation of aspect is made from degree to degree. But in Vedic astrology, the count is made from sign to sign.
