What the heck is mounted to the top of that "thing"? Love the sweet rims too.

 

oh, that's just the roof rack for mounting the winch, the jack, shovels, gas cans and spare tires. you know, all that stuff you need to dig your 2wd car out of a mud puddle.

 

likesaid beforethe first pic is the best... damn thats sweet i have a 93 toyota pickup i feel like takin it out to do that type of thing hmmm better go out lookin at some desserted places here in cali.... damn the pioneer xb is pimpin wish i could get mine like that... how badly would the mileage suffer?

 

I would take the cobbled together Pioneer xB over the "Rally xB" any day. I looked at the links form the o.p. and man does that work look like crap. You have done absolutely nothing to the xB that makes it any more "off road" worthy. A couple of skid plates and a half-@55ed brush guard won't save your suspension in chassis.

At least the box from Pioneer has a complete Bronco chassis underneath and a 289 under the hood to move it. I have no doubt, if the owner ever decides to get the thing finished the right way, it will be one sweet machine. But even in the condition it is currently in it completely dominates the "Rally xB."

 

If you want to rally at all, get a Subaru.

But, if you want to drive a 2WD city car fast down smooth gravel roads with lights strapped all over your hood and pretend you're Collin McRae, then by all means go right ahead.

 

well, im back after a basic training for the USAF and some tech school. Ill test the little car out when it has to make a drive from southeast texas to anchorage alaska

 

i like that rally scion cuz its different from all the over rally cars u see
out there

 

It is not a reqirement to have a subaru to rally. Not all rally cars are awd. Rally driving is about driver skill not about what car they drive. You shouldn't flame someone for doing something different with their box. I think its great. Looks like fun. I've always been a fan of rally driving. Nice pics btw.

 

thanks for the support guy!

 

Why?

 

why not?

 

I remember when I saw this thing in person, trust me, This thing is ready to kill!!

 

the xb got a new brush guard today, 4 new chrome 100w lights, much better looking, pics lata

 

I love rally racing - go on with your bad self.!!

 

Sweet christ I want that lip.
If anybody can find me that lip kit, I will do ANYTHING for you... even kill a man.

Or two.

 

BADASS.
i never even thought of rallying the box...

ive always been into rally. kinda sad i didnt get a subaru..but what can you do?
well..i was in a service crew for Joanna Balsamo at Rim of the World Rally in lancaster. I met a whole lot of awesome people.

and that "you need a subaru to rally" requirement is dumb. People rally 2wd ALL the time, competitively..they have 2 classes for competition Group 2 (lower hp cars limited to a certain displacement) and Group 5 (unlimitied crazy cars).
Best 2wd driver i met...Matt Johnston http://www.mattjohnstonrally.com/

Drives an EG Civic hatch..and wins. Impressed people so high up he was offered a Junior WRC ride..

 

weird... he lives in grand rapids MI? How do I not know him,?

 

he should be around! hes a really chill guy. the top people were kind of snobby when i met them (Travis Pastrana, KEN BLOCK, george plsek) but Leon Stiles and Matt Johnston were really friendly. Matts just your normal 23 year old dude.. very cool.

 

the new brush guard, pics later with the trailor on the xb.


and the old

 

hey rallying_the_scion, must agree with most of them, never thought of this box being a offroad vehicle....but i must say loven it.....looks great, really!!!
