Maybe a trainer cord for flying planes?
Yes, connect radios with this cord

Thinking Losi, maybe JRx2???
yes, Losi 5 link parts suspension parts

Rear adjustable plates. #4 #3's #2 (rear) and a blank (front possibly) No clue as to what they go to
Losi
They hold rear arm pins. Different ones for different degrees(?)
Very shiney, something "mini"
Triangular pieces are Losi 5link suspension towers

Heat sink, thinking associated, its blue
Might be...I've seen it before but can't find a picture now...Everything here is brand new basically. The sink, shock towers, and motor stand are about all that has been used. Any idea on anything here guys?

To add it is a trainer cord for buddy boxes, pre-1990ish. The plugs were enormous... that's what I learned on! I still have one tucked away with some old wide band transmitters.

Looks like the bottom 1/2 of a homemade air filter
That looks like the back plate of a prop spinner. The scored part would be where the prop would mount so it 'bites' into the hub of the prop.

Yes, I know, its a balloon

But for what? I have 2
You could also put these on the motors... you'll often see old Tamiya auctions with some sort of melted goo on the motor... usually one of these

No idea
Center is Futaba servo tray. Mount the servos in the openings and put the whole tray into the plane (or other application) between two hardwood rails.

Ah, that being a monster truck explains the massive

ride height the rally car version has.

I don't know for sure which version was based off of which but something tells me the Nitro Thrasher came last as it always seemed oddly built to me even at 12 years old. I didn't find out until years later that there were multiple models based off of the same design. It then made sense that they must have just changed a few parts to make it into a "monster truck" from a rally car.
Last night after I made that post I started reminiscing about the truck, and vaguely remember there also being a stadium truck conversion kit you could get for it. Well maybe it wasn't an actual kit but more of how-to. I can't remember exactly or even where I saw it. It might have been in back of the manual which I still have. I'll have to look.
