Top speed, quarter mile, lap times, stock, tuned, what?
Oh well, whichever you'll choose, the answer will be the R34 GT-R V-SpecII Nür. Some details about the different models:
GT-R: The base model. The drivetrain of the R33 V-Spec fitted as stock.
GT-R V-Spec: A slightly improved model.
GT-R V-SpecII: An even more sophisticated fast car, with technical improvements here and there.
GT-R V-SpecII N1: A track equipped carwith some equipment changes, based on the V-SpecII.
GT-R V-SpecII Nür: A special version of the V-SpecII, featuring better turbos and some interior changes. The best one out of these.
GT-R M-Spec: Something of a luxury GT-R, featuring a slightly softer suspension than the V-Spec and a leather interior. Technícally similar to the V-Spec.
GT-R M-Spec Nür: Like the V-SpecII Nür but built out of a M-Spec. The heaviest of all GT-R Skylines.

The problem with the Mine's Skyline is the same as with the Nismo R-Tune, while they are fast "out of the box" the normal models will eventually be faster thanks to the ability to take a wing and gain more downforce. 600 bhp and no downforce is no match for 600 bhp and lots of downforce when it comes to track racing. Moreover, the Mine's model only churns out 855 bhp in full tune while the V-SpecII Nür reaches its peak at 911 bhp.

and it'll most likely bite yourt head off since it's quite a handful even for the members of Skyline Squadron.Go for VSII Nür. there you have a car that can do 320mph+ and handle corners with ease.👍
i like mine, leonidae but i guess i did bring up a good point though. mine actually drives really nice and is a real fun machine. all i did to mine is put a racing brake kit on mine (that includes the brake controller), the custom LSD on it and it is a dream with only 630hp after an oil change

You fitted a FC LSD? No wonder it's stable then, you've just thrown the electronic differentials out of the window and replaced them with simple mechanical diffs that reduce manoeuvrability greatly.
The point is, the Mine's Skyline is reasonably easy to drive as stock, but as soon as the going gets more serious with power upgrades and the pursuit for the last hundredths of a second begins, it will be way more of a handful than the "home tuned" models. I can drive a 510 bhp Nismo S-Tune R32 (which I still consider as a home tuned model despite it being a Nismo) around the Nürburgring faster than a similarly modified 630 bhp Mine's R34 on similar tyres. The lack of downforce is just too big of a handicap.

always the same: a Skyline with FC LSD............the LSD destroys the handling of a Skyline totally!

yes the falken is a very stable and quite a handleful type of car. it can be fully tuned and still be easy with right track settings. although i am a drifter, i still classify myself as a quick track driver. who here can get under 6 mins in a race car around nurbergring with the right settings it can be done very scary to watch being done!!!!!

Well, the V-SpecII Nur can do a lap of the Nordschleife in 6'03 (if I recall correctly), and that was on R3s... There's more there too, that was in my less-than-perfect hands, and there was at least two fairly major mistakes in that lap. Despite how long ago that was, I am very confident that the car is capable of a sub-six-minute lap.
Although, the setup I was using did make it rather vicious at times - in fact, it was a lot more snappy than most cars I've driven there, with sometimes spectacular consequences...

Scary? That's not scary, because you don't care what happens. That little stunt in the Skyline was very scary, because I was on a personal best sector time and going harder than ever before - and got caught out. The part I'm proud of is the fact that I caught it, too... 
But, yes, I think it's safe to say we've located the fastest R34 Skyline - or rather, the fastest road-going Skyline.

Alot of the new skylines are basically the same.
well thats not entirely right because all of the models have at least 2 different changes in them i think the r33 gtr v spec is the best at everything

Oh, come on Leo, give it a rest...
The GT-R34 V-SpecII Nur is still the fastest Skyline there is, although I still don't like it the most.

Oh just give it up Leonidae i like all gtr's (because they're fast!!!) but the r33 looks the best with big rims and a freakish paintjob. All the r32 looks like is a drowned rat in a sewer lookin for people waste!! Even worse when fully done up!! And who cares about weight, if its got enough power it will handle good!!! (Easily fixed)? Dunno what you're on about, but the r32 is probably the ugliest out of all gtr's!!!

Just to inform you a bit, and to prevent this from becoming a flame fest, the entire GT-R generation debation between Dark Elite and Leonidae (with me occasionally sticking my spoon into the soup) is a big joke. The guys know each other well and that thing is just a very long running inside thing, nothing serious is involved.
Oh, and definitely R32 for the win, any day.

The V-Spec adds a number of changes over the base GT-R, including ATTESSA-ETS Pro (reg. GT-R is not "Pro", not sure what is actually different between the 2 systems), Race ABS (still lets you slide if you want), improved suspension components (lower and stiffer shocks/springs, larger sway bars, not sure what all else, possibly more chassis bracing?), different badging, clear vs. amber signals and markers, more features in the in-car HUD, including datalogging, functional full underbody ground-effects, slight interior changes, different color options, and a few other things I can't remember right now.
The M-Spec is nearly the same as the V-Spec, yet with a more luxurious, leather interior with more comfort options, a softer, more comfortable suspension, more sound deadening, and a few unique trim and color options. While still a GT-R and more capable than most other cars it may encounter, the M-Spec tends to focus a little more on the "GT" and less on the "R".
To my knowledge, the only change made in the V-Spec II from the original V-Spec, aside from badging, is the addition of a painted carbon fiber hood with a functional, raw-carbon NACA duct over the turbos/manifolds.
The Nur models were made to commemorate the R34 breaking the 8 minute barrier on the Nordschleife (which I was more than capable of doing in the game w/ my stock V-specII Nur), and feature a number of minor trim, badging, color, and interior touches to add an elegant air of exclusivity. The in-dash HUD adds a lap timer, and I believe that a Nismo shift knob was standard, though I cannot verify that for sure. The most important difference, however, is the N1 engine and turbos, which are significantly stronger and better than the production versions. I am not aware of any differences or improvements made to the N1 engines, though I am fairly confident they are the same. As far as the Nur models making more power in game than the N1, I have no idea why this would be, though none of the power modifications in the game appear to the most realistic, so I would assume this is just a mere anomaly and implies no differences to the real cars.
