STAGE 2 DEFENDER 0-60mph! *SHOCKED!*

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Was that time a surprise for you?! When I edited and saw the time I thought it wasn't too bad compared to the standard time! (May need to go fit a new clutch now though 😂...)

[@mf303]

I think that’s a good improvement. I suspect the “official” figure published by Land Rover was achieved by a test driver driving in brutal style that would have most Defender owners wincing, and is a figure most owners wouldn’t get near.

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Thansk MF- I was a bit scared of doing more in case I went through my clutch!

[@starletboy9349]

What dash is that ?? The speedo is that standard or a aftermarket piece ?

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Hey- it is completely standard I believe - the TD5 interior

[@BigArch6564]

Cool vlog Doc but when are you going to square away your interior?

[@thedoctorsgarage]

It’s on the list of things that need doing! In the next few months I’m taking another look at it all

[@2702simmo]

Cool video They’re definitely quicker I surprise a few at the lights since my st 2 😂

[@thedoctorsgarage]

😂 it feels quicker than the numbers say too with the rattles and wind noise!

[@al-s]

That's a decent time, I need to see what mine will do with just a remap!

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Thanks- It felt about 100mph but was quite pleased with the difference!

[@StewBro]

Not bad for the amount of extra weight ur carrying with the sound deadening etc

[@thedoctorsgarage]

I’m trying my hardest to shift the lockdown weight too mate 😂

[@StewBro]

@@thedoctorsgarage 🤣 winter is coming keep the extra "insulation" a few more months 🤣

[@nneb1976]

ive got the stage two done on mine with the predator map from Alive. If i want to pull away quickly, i start in 2nd gear give it the beans and with a little slip of the clutch I'm spinning the front wheels and off down the road. 0-60 is much quicker than if i start in 1st gear. Does anyone else do this?

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Thanks Benn- that does sound like it would be fast but I’m a bit scared to do that in case I go straight through my clutch 😂

[@scheissesoze1741]

Yes, I think 1st is too low to use for normal driving, pulling away on level ground without a trailer. I always start in 2nd now and avoid having to upshift at around 10mph. This definitely improves the 0-60 time.

[@Ciaransadventures]

That's a great time, definitely don't think I could match that in my 110 😂😂

[@thedoctorsgarage]

It doesn’t feel very safe doing a 0-60 in a defender 😂

[@Ciaransadventures]

@@thedoctorsgarage 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Probably how the first astronauts felt going to space

[@thedoctorsgarage]

@@Ciaransadventures exactly that! 🚀

[@typhoon3s943]

Are you going to get alive’s new turbo?

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Not sure yet- I did go out to in their test car that was running it and it does go well!

[@richardclark6124]

Yea Iv been out in that test car also after having my Landy stage 2 and wow it goes like something else, I’m keen on getting the fox shocks and performance anti roll bar because I was really surprised how well it stuck to the road specially round the roundabouts!!

[@thedoctorsgarage]

Agree- the ride quality is so good in it isn’t it! I definitely need to look at that next

[@richardwalker5906]

That's good that I'd say 0-60 👍
