If you have a version of NCL later than V5.1.0. the recommended method is the "ZoomIn" attribute that is recognized by wrf_map:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/WRF_arw/wrf_map.shtml
There are some examples of using "ZoomIn" on the WRF-ARW page:

Subject: how to plot a subregion with wrf_contour

Hello,

I would like to plot a subregion of my wrf output. I tried to set
   res@mpMinLatF = -50
   res@mpMaxLatF = 0
   res@mpMinLonF =-100
   res@mpMaxLonF =-70

But it didn't work. The followings are my setting. Do you have any suggestion? Thanks!
