Without a more concrete example, I'm not exactly sure what you're after. 
Here are a few examples of plots given different arguments to the plot() 
function.  Perhaps one of them is doing what you want.

x <- 100*runif(100)
y <- 100*runif(100)
X1 <- 23
X2 <- 71
sel <- x >= X1 & x <= X2

par(mfrow=c(2, 2))
plot(x, y, main="plot(x, y)")
        abline(v=c(X1, X2), lty=2, col="red")
plot(x, y, xlim=c(X1, X2), main="plot(x, y, xlim=c(X1, X2))")
        abline(v=c(X1, X2), lty=2, col="red")
plot(x[sel], y[sel], main="plot(x[sel], y[sel])")
        abline(v=c(X1, X2), lty=2, col="red")
plot(x[sel], y[sel], xaxs="i", main='plot(x[sel], y[sel], xaxs="i")')
        abline(v=c(X1, X2), lty=2, col="red")
