Whatever you want for upwards movement.

For downwards movement, just make a giant chute and fill it with clouds. It negates fall damage and it gives you a little bit of time to 'preview' each floor, allowing you to see what room it is. If you're going too fast, you won't be able to pick the correct floor, as you won't be able to see it.

Back inthe days when I played vanilla, I made a cool piston elevator, that was quick, and not buggy!Unfortunatly, IDK the design anymore, because redpower changed my brain...

I made a computercraft controlled elavator that went very quickly between 6 floors. It was one of my first programs and I am a total novice so it isn't too tricky to code. MFR rednet definitely helps. However it had a bit of a design flaw in that only one computer could be on at a time because it would be sending out conflicting redstone signals. This is not a problem until the game is closed. I will make it work again in the future once I get my head around the parallel API and I need it in my current world.

However, it was good because it obviated the need for loads of buttons and it was very compact. Also, if I recall correctly, elevator tracks do not need creosote oil.

I know you said no more mods, but I think you should consider Chainz. I love my chainlink elevator! It's very simple & very Minecraft-y. Or just hang a plain old chain and climb up and down it. Chainz is great.
