Upgrade Axles?
I read somewhere here a guy mentioned having Axles out of XYZ car and now I cant find it.
Would anyone know if the stock Axles are crap or what? Is there an off the shelf one that will fit the xB and be better?

I've done a ton of axle interchange research and haven't found another direct replacement that is a definitive upgrade. The Driveshaft Shop has an axle upgrade available that uses their custom wheel hubs. It's pretty pricey, but would likely hold up to anything you could throw at it from a 1NZ.

Their have been a few people over the years to make good power from a 1NZ, but I don't recall seeing which axles they were using. I can't imagine stock axles would hold up to many 200+whp launches on sticky tires.
I'm using aftermarket MR-2 Spyder CV axles with the 2ZZ swap. Unfortunately these won't work for you.
