Default Panel truck xb's unite!!!

Well i know now that there are more panel xb's out there than i knew about when i started! lol so lets come together and show it off!!! pic's... interior and exterior... and specs! lets see how many we have out there! put your name... mods... also location... and pics just like what i have on the first post!

Palm Bay, FL

**Current Sponsors**
• Aitracing.com – Full Wide Body Kit, Carbon fiber wing.
• Bazooka and iConnect – 16 10” subs and all of the wiring components.
• Airbagit-store.com – Air bags and cylinders and misc.
• ABS Dynamics.com
• Weaksuace.org -- Work Rims


**Modifications**
• Interior
o Dashboard
– The entire dashboard is customs fiberglass. There are six Bazooka mids and highs in the top of it consisting of, two 4”, two 5.25” and two 6” speakers. We put a single din pioneer deck to the left of the steering wheel to add more room on the opposite side. To the right of the steering wheel in the passenger side there is a 22” Acer wide screen LCD monitor, which is hooked up to an Xbox that is molded in the bottom center of the dash. There is no A/C, nor is there a glove box or passenger air bag.
o Door Panels – Both door panels are custom fiberglassed and house four 5.25” Bazooka speakers along with their very own 700 watt amplifier build into the door. We have removed the door locks completely and have taken the window switches out of both doors and ran them into the car.
o A-Pillars – Both pillars have been fiberglassed and two 4” Bazooka speakers have been placed in each one.
o Center Console – The center console has been custom fiberglass and now has a fiberglass armrest along with two 4” bazooka speakers in the front of the console. We have removed the E-Brake as well from the car.
o B-Pillars And The Back of The Car – The B-Pillars have been custom fiberglass to flow into the front of the “Pac-Man” Wall that takes up the rest of the car. This faηade will help not only with the aesthetics of the interior, but it will help keep the sound in the cab of the vehicle. The wall houses sixteen 10” Bazooka subwoofers.
o Trunk – The trunk is housing eight 700 watt Bazooka mono amplifiers that are powering only the subwoofers. This too will be completely custom and completely made of fiberglass. Four of them are placed inside the trunk and the other four are on the hatch upside down.
o The Floor – The floor of that car has now been covered with a “fake” floor that is 3-4 inches higher than the original. This floor will go from the bottom part of the box faηade to about 10 inches in front of the front seats. Under the floor in front of the seats there will be a plexi glass window showing a 700 watt Bazooka Amplifier for some of the speakers.
o Audio Components – All said and done the car will have twenty-six Bazooka speakers being powered by four Bazooka multi channel amplifiers, and sixteen bazooka subwoofers being powered by eight Bazooka mono amplifiers. All of the speakers are being provided by Bazooka. All of the wiring is being provided by iConnects. To power up this system we are using 4 Kinetik HC2400’s that are being provided by Kinetik. We will also have a 100 amp power supply for when we are in the “inside” car show.

• Exterior
o Body
– We have made this originally 4-door vehicle into a 2-door panel truck. We welded the rear doors shut and took out all of the components from the b-pillars back out (i.e. all windows and all electronics). In place of the windows we have welded an 18 gauge steel panel with Ό inch steel tube reinforcements, there are only 4 or 5 scion xB’s that have done this. We then foamed the inside of the doors and the panels for sound deadening and structure. We removed the roof rain gutters and filled them in to have a nice flat roof look (never done to a scion). The shaved off the door handles, everything off of the rear trunk, the side markers on the front quarter panels, and the stock tails lights. We molded the old rear bumper onto the car and then placed 2 stock Dodge Neon third brake lights on either side of the rear bumper. The car right now has a full K-1 series wide body kit from AITRacing.com along with the corresponding wing. We will also be molding this entire kit to the car. The rear fenders and wheel wells are cut out to accommodate larger wider rims.

• Engine
o Intake and Exhaust
– I have an Injen short ram intake, Megan racing headers.

• Suspension
o Full Air Ride
– We just recently purchased a set of 2500 bags for the rear and 3” diameter cylinders for the front from Airbagit-store.com. The entire front end and rear end are going to be built custom so that the vehicle lays “kit”. We accomplished this by welding steel “cups” to the top of the strut tower allowing the cylinder to be raised another 2.5” – 3”. We then engineered a whole custom strut out of the cylinder. We, for the time being, are going to have only four valves on this system with 1 slim 5 gallon tank and a Viair 480 connected to it for three simple movements.



**Future Modifications**
• PERRINPERFORMANCE.COM: High Performance Water Injection System, Lightened Crank Pulley, Oil Catch can/ Coolant Overflow Tank, Radiator Hose Kit, Fuel Rail
• SFX PERFORMANCE: AEM Cold Air Intake Blue (AEM21567B), Weapon R Engine Dampers (WPR959111103), DC Sports Header (DCSSHC4401)
• Add 1 more Viair 480, 1 more slim 5 gallon tank and four more valves on to the air ride kit.
• ABS DYNAMICS: Carbon Fiber Engine Cover, Carbon Fiber Type-2 Grill w/ Fog Lights, and the Carbon Fiber Trunk Hatch.
• Either Greddy Turbo kit or Greddy/Blitz Supercharger.
• WEAKSAUCE.ORG: Work Euroline DH 18” x 8” in the front and 19” x 10” in the rear.
• Rotora big Brake kit with steel braided brake lines.
• Stationary rag top from the bottom of the window sills up, this will be done as soon as the body work is completed.
• Custom exhaust from Meineke.
• NX Express Purge and spray kit. One tank for a purge and one tank for either a wet or dry nitrous set-up.
• BBist Dual vented hood.
• Suicide doors, that will be going on right before we complete the body work.
• We are also altering the way the hood and trunk open, but have yet decided what the best way to go about this is.






More Recent pic... now with a bagged front end! haha
