That's literally impossible. Nym motors will only increase the maximum damage, and at most they will increase it by 35 points (and even that is really really rare, most are 30 or less). Assuming you had a really really rare motor with +35 max damage, and the VK would have been 146 before the Nym enhancement (I think 146 is the max damage possible with a normal presliced VK), it would have been 181 before the slice and 224 max damage after the slice (and this is assuming the *best possible stats*).
So not even the max damage could have been that high, let alone the minimum damage. Either your stats are way off or it didn't have that kind of motor in it.
Here's an idea... Check out the accuracy modifiers on the VK. If the modifiers are all the same, it wasn't done with a Nightsister motor. If the Ideal Range modifier of the weapon is much higher than the others, it's a Nightsister VK.
UNSLICED and has NO POWERUP, it is brand new, and has never been used.

Like I said I am not a weaponsmith so I am not sure on the crafting part. I was off on the min. damage but I said I was unsure.
It was sliced at 24% damage. for a 44 min. and 230 max damage. More than happy to take a screeny for you.

Ok, so I was right. That minimum damage was impossible. 
Maybe there are really rare Nym powerups that can go even higher than +35, I haven't heard of any but it's possible. I'm with Sovi on one, that must have been one heck of a powerup.

2.0 speed
100 min (not sure just guessing)
230 max (positive on that) (33% damage Pup equates to 306 max damage)
this is sliced 24% damage and has no power up

Ya, I was way off on the min., knew I was so I said I was guessing.I just included the weaponsmith thing for info purposes as I am unsure on that crafting profession. I guess it is like Doctor, you can reach a power max, then spend the rest of the points on charges.

my main VKs are something like 3.4s and 30-86 damage. didn't even bother slicing them cause it wouldn't matter much and wear 'em down faster. but they are great on HAM costs

Hi!
I use a standard enhanced VK withstats:
DMG: 48-214
With PUP: DMG 48-247
SPD: 2.2
DMG Sliced by meself 30%+
HAM: 35,51,35
I am not so very interested in the MAX DMG as this is fairly easy to get above 200+ but how the hell you get a VK with higher MIN DMG and lower HAM costs? Even if i am fully buffed, mindenhanced, brandy and ahrisait eats away my mind fairly fast when fighting high end mobs/creatures.

"Even if i am fully buffed, mindenhanced, brandy and ahrisa it eats away my mind fairly fast when fighting high end mobs/creatures."
You've got some really bad food and/or buffs. It doesn't take a lot to get your Focus high enough that you don't use up Mind with specials. I think somewhere around 1500 or so. Brandy and 2 ahrisa can be a 1200 point boost easily, and that's ignoring a musician buff (you said you had "full" buffs).

Hi!
A bit off topic here but somewhat related anyway.
As i stated in my previous post i have severe HAM problems. Even if i got state off the art buffs, food, drinks and mindenhancements. Hell i could fight nekkid and still incap meself faster with the HAM costs than it would take a NS protector and/or sentinel to incapp and DB me. (not) Nah seriously, I know there are vibrounits to increase MAX DMG but does it exist units that decrease HAM costs? If so where can i find them?
