Nifeliz V8 Engine Building Set, Exclusive Advanced Collector's Engine Model, Physical Science Experiment Toy for Adults, Home or Office Décor (2725 PCS, NF10287)

This is a great project. I’ve done a few complicated wood builds and really liked them. I was worried this being plastic that it would be boring and too easy like kids legos. Not so! It was challenging and fun to build. The instructions are first rate and of super high quality! A lot of thought went into the design and engineering of this V8 engine. I would do another Nifeliz kit in a heartbeat.

This NifeliZ V8 Engine is one of the most fun and complicated builds I've done. I've built lots of trains, cars, buildings and Star Wars sets. This ranks up there with the best of them. I can't wait to use it to explain V8 Engines to my grandsons. Cranking it makes the pistons go up and down as well as the valves opening and closing. It's a very well engineered piece. It's also a very difficult build but the instructions are fantastic. You'll have a real sense of accomplishment when it's complete. Unlike most of my builds I only found one thing that didn't fit just right. The top cover didn't set just right so I made a minor correction - I reversed the blue pins in step 192 and in step 371, now the top sets squarely on the red and blue pins. (see pictures 1 & 2). One other thing I changed was the gray piece used in steps 608 thru 611. Ascetically I felt the pieces should be all black. (see picture 3) Hope this is helpful - enjoy your build.NifeliZ V8 Engine - NF 10287 followup:I bought this kit a few weeks ago and have had a fun time building and then tweaking it to make it my own version. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with this kit, I just can’t stop myself from modifying things after I’ve built them. It’s just more fun. So what I want to share is some of the functional and cosmetic modification I made to my NifeliZ V8.I have already showed 2 things in my initial review. Here are a few more:1) The top has a back cover that is only held on in three places. Sometimes when I would accidentally pull too hard it would slip off. So I added an additional attach point that makes it a little sturdier. See Picture (1 Engine Cover)2) The Frame structure for the gears on the front of the engine seemed like it needed a little extra support so I looked for a way to add support as well as improve cosmetics. I decided modifying pipes and locations of what I think are the fuel filters would improve the structure. One mod was very easy - I just had to remove a small yellow disc. The left side required a complete redo. It was worth it now the frame is secured to the heads on both sides and the filters are in better alignment. See Picture (2 Fuel Filters)3) The next few things I did are strictly cosmetic to satisfy my need for balance. There are a lot of pieces that stick out and look like they should connect to something. See Pictures (3 Engine Front 1 and 4 Engine Front 2). I decided to cap them off so they would look more finished to me. There was also an elbow that looked like it should go somewhere so I added a section that looks like a pipe. See Pictures (5 Cover Off 1 and 6 Cover Off 2)4) I add a couple of cosmetic pieces to the rear of the engine also. See Picture (7 Engine Rear)Let me emphasize there is nothing wrong with this engine. I just love kits where I can have fun making simple changes that makes it seem better to me and gives me my own unique version. Find your own little tweaks and enjoy the fun.

This is easily the most fun set and challenging set I've put together so far. It fits together nicely. The instructions were stellar. It looks incredible and I'm proud to display it.The most tedious part of putting together these models together is finding the silly pieces before you can put them on. But this set eliminates this tedium altogether by having more sets of bags with fewer parts per bag, meaning you don't have to keep searching for parts to put them on.

Please note that I bought this kit. I've built 4 or 5 Nifeliz kits and wrote negative reviews and stopped buying their kits. This one intrigued me so I bought it anyway. What a difference from previous kits! The manual had fewer instructions per page, very clear pictures and the book stayed together. The pieces fit way better and is the equal of that Danish company. The finished project is gorgeous and works very well. If the chains seem flimsy as others have written, check them closely as the most likely problem is one of the pins on a link is not seated correctly into the next link.I'm very impressed with the great increase in quality of this kit over previous ones from this company.

The media could not be loaded. This was one of the coolest brick builds I've ever done. It's fairly complex, but not overly difficult if you're mechanically inclined. Just pay close attention and build everything tight, leave just enough play in the rotating connections. I would imagine some lubrication would make this even more smooth, and the motion is already very smooth. Highly recommended, but pay attention 🤘The part quality was exceptional. No loose fitting parts, no missing parts. High quality gloss printed manual on nice paper.

Very very complicated....instructions better than average......things work and turn all in small sets but when you put everything together they jam up and nothing works.....only missing about 6 pieces out of 2725......pretty good kit...BIG

Good instrucciones but could not find all the parts. It had missing parts.

Awesome shipping as usual. As for this Lego set I'm glad I got one. This Lego set is super cool. Working on the cylinders now, I just can't say enough about this thing. The Engineering on this is outstanding! Funnest Lego set yet. 😊 😊
