Land Rover Defender 4.6 V8 in bomb hole
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Tom in his well-prepared, mega-squirted V8, playing around in the in "new hole" :)
I went in this with my 3.5v8, but naturally, the distributor filled with water and I drowned it. Doh !

i luv how he can't quite over the crest (starting @ the 3:18 mark), backs down into the hole again, goes "bloody hell!"-and runs over the small tree beside the spot he just tried! take that you dirty hole!! xD
fantastic video ! unlike all the others on here with a 4x4 of some sort going through a puddle !
Damn! Bad ass rig! Thanks for posting!
Even though the steering wheel is on the wrong side that looked like an awesome toy to have. I envy the owner.
what a beast of a rig. I WANT IT! :) i can't get over the amount of people commenting on the snorkel or the "steam" coming off the hot exhaust/engine. nothing smells better than mud/grass cooking. except maybe burnt rubber from a massive burnout! ;)
reminds me of the mud holes i put my samis through:) nice one bro
mud pluggin, cant beat it, Land Rover, best 4x4 by far . . . if I was sober I would be taking my 3.9 beast of a disco for a mud bath. . . .
That thing looks great, good work to who modified it, and to the driving was very good too. I'll try do make the front of my defender look like that. I've digged my bumper in mud alot of times, eventhough my 90 is 5 inch raised.
Everything has its limits, but this car is amazing
haha.... I love landy's. Great video mate
Offroad it's fine, never gets above normal. It runs a bit hotter on road than the normal position as less forced-air cooling but the fans kick in and do their bit
AAAAWWEEESSSSOOOOOMME machine. cool vid!
@offroadell stock waterpump, coolant piping is same diameter throughout to keep the flow.
Not hating but I've heard the defender is slow and uncomfortable (ride) on the highway. Is that true? I hear they do off road exceptionally well though. Clearly as shown in this video.
This looks great fun
Tom will bring you up on the waterpump, but the place is an estate near Dingwall, in Highland. 20 mins from Inverness.
@sovereign126 we cant get the Simex tires in Canada or the U.S. , not D.O.T approved. I went with the Goodyear MTR-s...275/65/18 kevlars on my Disco. Its the closest thing to a Simex i could find. love the rear mounted radiator.
@lansing9r tom´s ride is just great!
Very nice 90 - are those mudzillas hes got on, some size, must need some serious wheel spacers to fit those? I've seen them in action & they are the business, mega wide foot. Long live LR.
@Amk71839 Don't think Tom's had it dyno'd. But it's all about the torque for an off-roader. Low-down, the megasquirt has anti-stall and we played about driving it up some tricky tracks without touching the peddles. It never stalled once despite the wheels spinning...
Crazy good fun I need one
hi youre sitting on the wrong side,nice car
@Amk71839 Not smoke - steam. Hot exhaust+ water.... Engine never missed a beat. Runs like a clock.
nice, i always thought these defenders looked badass...
Thanks for the reply .
Lovely work 1 ) The Rad in the back , is that a total reclacement , or a secondard ? 2 ) What have you done for an alternator , as the orignal is air cooled ..... and the mudding would be a pain .
classy,we want in on the action
needs more gooder tyres. i don't know much about wide tyres, nor about UK availabilities, but simex make amazing 4x4 tyres which are extremely good in australian 4x4 comps.
@SpecialAndNotDumb Oh... you and your comedy trolling ways!!! You're so very special! :D
@lansing9r Wish I got around to getting Megasquirt for my Mini sooner. One big puddle and she'd had enough, ha.
@silowhore A snorkel? As-in "the big blue tube clearly visible up the passenger side of the vehicle" ? He's got one. Clearly...
Thats how u beat a shit box
Has a very nice note. Is that a 4.6 from a P38? Man I loved my P38. I'm now a Landcruiser man for reliability but still love the Landies!
0:35 Beavis and Butthead :-D
haha good video
nice!
Not my truck, I like the look personally. Improves the departure angle. Tyres are superb, but that water was so deep I think it was floating a bit. Truck is unstoppable otherwise...
is it a manual? hate to be opening the clutch up in that mud
i really dont want to be the one washing these things
What did this innocent car did to you guys ??? This is torture !
@mrbenyong the garden's still recovering! :)
@WiredTechnology Highlands, up near Inverness :-)
@aninka00 Yeah that worked. Megasquirt = no distributor. Google! ;-)
how much horsepower does this thing have? and why was it smoking?
@lansing9r clearly his Honda doesn't have one. otherwise he'd know where to look for one.
@TheSundayScoop Water getting on hot engine parts. Let's call it "the exhaust"..... Vehicle was fine, just steam !
@Habbosdify No distributor at all, it's distributor-less. Megasquirt. Google for it :-)
@minimoke8394 Ha.. Mine has been sitting in a box for 2.5 years, still not got round to fitting it ! Kinda lost interest...
@Habbosdify Not seeing a workable URL in there.... ?
@thybigballs Steering on the right, drive on the left...? Nope, I don't se any problems.
im not an expert, but wouldnt bigger tires do the trick?
Well my truck is a pig on the road. But it's built for off-road. That said, plenty people use them as their road-car. Just don't expect Jeep/Japanese levels of quiet and comfort. Try it out. Especially if you're tall - legroom can be a problem..
I need DEFENDER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
do they not see it smoking or steaming or whatever???
how much horsepower does this thing have?
@dabomb20allo It's got one. Clearly...
@Diphot72 Yeah that's me... Careful.. :p
@TheBushcraftBoyz 37" Mudzillas. No spacers as far as I know !
@sovereign126 Nothing wrong with the tyres.. it was floating :-)
water + hot engine = steam. its not complicated.
@iiBraaad Google, my-boy ! Open-source fuel injection controlling system.
Alternator just drowns for a bit... :)
um ....yeah.....
thumbs up if u noticed the steering wheel on the right side
lav it
@WiredTechnology Google maps, dude ;-)
i thought it was a gud video..... v8 + mud + decent camer = 5 stars
no entiendo tu risa,pero bueno
hahahahahahahahahahah
@SpecialAndNotDumb ps. You "have" an accent. You don't "make" one. When trying to indicate someone's stupidity, you'll find it helps re-inforce your point by drawing attention to your own. Here to help :-)
dude, they're called super swampers. I prefer the tsl sx, or the bogger. get those jobber tires off of that rig
buy a snorkel
@SanctuaryShred I saw your "channel". Yes. You like loud music. We get it. You're "hard". The world is an annoying piece of shit between your toes and you don't care who knows it. I know I speak for everyone here when I say we're all impressed at how tough you talk. I never said you listened to Bieber. Nor mentioned your granny. That was someone else (hey, it's called "reading!"). I'm sure you're not the type who listens to Bieber in fact. I'm sure you'd rather slit your wrists. So slit away.
@SpecialAndNotDumb Time on your hands? Or just a dumbass in general? ;-)
V8s hate warta so cange the engine for a good old 300 tdi engine

Megasquirt in that one. So it doesn't care about water.

Why would you downgrade from a V8 to a TDi ??? Would you put a Fiesta ST engine in a Porsche 911??? Thought not!
