As stated it depends on how deep your pocket is.. I'm guessing that the B13/B14 will be a 4wd platform in your question. You can creep b4 you walk and start with a B13/B14 ( mind you there are a good few well running 4WD B13's/14's around that pack a mean punch ) . The B13 4WD chassi is full of win. You can place the Pulsar GTiR Diff in as it is more geared for short sprints. Pulsar GTIR suspension parts are interchangeable also. However as amazing as its performance will be with a well put together 4WD B13/B14 project for Drags you will face a few limitations. The GTiR gearbox can only handle so much in stock form anything above 350 in tq and that gearbox will give you app 7 races b4 it goes bye bye.. but planning ahead can solve the problem with the purchase of a dog box or have the gearbox internals shot peened and cryo treated in the U.S. or if you find some local company to do it instead. If you choose the 4 throttle engine and you can find parts for it incase of any mishaps then go no further ( An aviner engine can match the power and potential of a Pulsar GTiR engine but will require a the GTiR turbo, GTiR manifold, brain and injectors to do so) , dependent on your setup you can yeild 350+ whp with bone stock internals( yeah not even a head gasket change along with all the necessary bolt on parts ) which is more than enough to put you in 12's once you're a good driver. With enough money you can get that B13/B14 into 10's and still have a street able car ( I could hear the angry mob who will doubt this coming in to post ).. Nothing is wrong with this choice it can carry as far as you would like to go with enough $$$.
Now with the S14!!... well as you have seen with local guys doing lovely times without a 2Jz stuck in the chassi. It will cost you only a few upgrades such as an Aftermarket turbo and manifold, the right size injectors, a good fuel management or Standalone, tyres and suspension without even dropping opening up the block to make some mean power. It is the ideal project for drags because it's RWD. The chassi is well built from the factory and will only require a roll cage when you drop in the 10's range. With the engine in stock form it can take you a good distance with regards to performance, but never the less eventually you will have to forge out the block to get into the 10's range along with the required turbo and bolt ons to suite.
The Nissan skyline which ever GTR 4wd model you choose is a dam good choice especially the R32!! Number one the list on this side of the globe by almost allThis drag project will cost alot and you can't run nor hide from it. That sweet sexy machine will wrap you around it's fingers and make you spend alot once you start to mod the engine and suspension! There is a wide range of aftermarket parts to take you in the 9's and 8's territory.. Compared to all the other choices in your list it's the most expensive project!! The RB26 engine ( hoping you get a GTR model ) is a beast in stock form but it does have its weaknesses which is mainly the oil pump ( The N1 Oil pump is a must have for your drag GTR!! ) and a few other tid bits.. Engine aftermarket parts are expensive and also remember this is not a 4 banger like the SR20DET. Its 2 rods more and 2 pistons more.. don't even start talking about valve train parts

Parts are definitely not cheap but the rewards after is Bliss!! I don't know too much about different setups you can use on the GTR but I am sure local guys ( Aaron, Prentice, Tam etc..) can give you good sound info with the do's and don'ts on modding the vehicle to reach 10's.
Mind you I did not go into specifics really cause I'm sure you have a good idea of the various aftermarket internal parts and bolt ons including engine management you will need to take you into the desired bracket for your drag project
Whichever vehicle you choose from the list from the least expensive to the mammoth GTR you can get into the 10's category with the right choice of parts and your tuner! YES YOUR TUNER!! The guy that makes the thousands of dollars in parts which your very experienced mechanic installed to get your setup running the way it is supposed to..
