Ok so heres the deal. I have Desh copper of about 350 UT, (its capped at about 360 i think) and platinite at about 650 (capped at around 700)
Now, out of this i can make advanced vibro units. However, would i get better results if i crafted normal vibro units, because of the 1000UT spawn of duralloy?
I dont know 
I have vibro motors to enhance also

Go with advanced as the added damage is more important than the speed gain using non-advanced.
Also it is a good idea to experiment with things for yourself and decide based on your experiences. Make one of each and you can compare the stats.

Don't use the vibro motors until you have what you can confirm as "uber resources" ^_^. But yeah, damage gained from advanced units put more money in your pocket, and a smile on your face.. The vibro motors, once again should be used sparingly...being that you don't come by those everyday.

Try to confirm your caps and make advanced units but I would suggest holding back on making a huge amount of them until you have a market for them.

I like making the advanced units because of the resource cap..you're forced to experiment on something else. So my Advanced units are a little stronger, a little slower but I am able to experiment and make them lower in HAM, which is valuable to TKA's.

my friend spams specials, and no matter what he can't survive with 2 +415 brandy's and 1 +800 canape. If he eats any more canapes he will ruin his digest duration/xp period or something because he gets too full.
anyways. I made some 3.0 speed 28-103 damage 23/36/23 HAM VK's. (test prototypes, need a few more runs to get the right combo)
I prefer the advanced because the HAM cost is the same as the regular, however it gives more damage. Speed is good, but as master TKA whats the point in havinga 2.0 speed VK?
I also went halfway and came out with a 2.5 speed 35-135 damage 31/45/31
For my low-ham model:
Vibroknuckler (low-ham) (AP1): 38-147 kinetic, 2.2 spd, 38.1% WC, +13/+13/+13, 31/47/32 HAM, 966 Condbut this is using 12 pts on sub and final.
