Darth Nihilus vs Various Sith Lords ( Force Only )
Nihilus is typically omitted from many people's top ten Sith lists due to the nature of his character/power. How does he fare in a Force fight against the following Sith Lords?

Nihilus' drain isn't standard, lol. Krayt using the normal version and Kun using it in a ritual mean nothing towards them blocking Nihilus' version which is stated to have no defense.

His drain is the height of a drain variation the ancient Sith learnt, both Kun and Krayt had ridiculously large knowledge about said drain. Kun created the Force Harvester which drains thousands at a time, he created the Golden Globe to drain and encase thousands of Massassi, as a spirit Kun drained Gantoris to ash faster than Gantoris could charge him down in a small bedroom.
Kun's Force blast is stated to kill spirits, one of which was the spirit of Freedon Nadd amped by hundreds of Jedi spirits. Darth Nihilus is an essence/spirit that shedded his own body and used his mask/armor as an anchor.

Stomped by all. Simple power scaling + statement dictates this. Nihilus is strong but over rated. He is only a rival to some ancient Sith although Drain is his edge admittedly.

These things and more."
A more conventional clash would be a spectacle to behold in each case. However, Darth Nihilus's stupendous Force Drain powers tip each contest in his favor.

Point is about being on its receiving end. No known conventional technique renders greatest expressions of Force Drain mute. Even Abeloth couldn't do anything about Force Drain powers of Darth Krayt.
Spirits/disembodied beings significantly vary in power and capabilities. There is no one-shoe-fit-all regarding them.
We have examples of spirits/disembodied beings such as Valkorion and Abeloth who look unstoppable. We also have examples of spirits/disembodied beings that could hardly do much.
Darth Nihilus was not like a conventional spirit. Jedi Exile and her allies diminished his strength to an extent that he could no longer sustain his form. Pressures of extreme hunger also wore him down.

Both of your states are fundamentally no limits of the fallacious kind, Darth Nihilus will not be capable of draining them to death before they can react. Especially Plagueis and Krayt who are both familiar with Nihilus' infamous Force applications.
A Force blast is proven to be capable of rending spirits, even extremely powerful ones, to pieces. This was only Exar Kun before his prime as a Force user.
