Most likely. It was built (or built for) an old guy called Colin. Think he replaced it with a Mk4 Golf diesel that he got tuned to around 300bhp.

Car is built for purpose ..unsprung weight & running and able to cool big brakes

Thanks Guys
Few poor wee clips from an old drag day a mate took with his phone
had a few runs with two edition 30's one 350bhp with all the toys
Guy thought he had me and another with a 450 skyline you can hear on the clip .. Guys turbo lag lol
When you sign in you give Reg make and BHP ..I give 200bhp
which was called out each run
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loQe4UFnzCA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UMVEqnr2sM
Running a bit more power now and car is much better sorted
New clips are road clips with Evo's etc .. can't put them up
Another Edition 30 Stage 3 with diff and 360bhp
waste of time lol

Thought this looked familiar - I was looking at it at that show in 2012 you have the pic from. That was Junction 1 iirc.
Cracking motor, well done.
