Is this an uprated panel filter?

Hi, found filter this in my airbox on my JDM STI Hawkeye. Is this an uprated one? Sorry to ask but I’m not sure what the standard one looks like!

Looks very similar to the Simota or the Jetex/JR one on scoobyparts website here:
Scoobyparts Ltd Air Filters

Anyone know if it is an uprated panel filter and maybe what the make is?
Thanks in advance, Carl.

Make sure its fitted properly and the small spacers are cut off underneath so it sits flush.

Thanks everyone.

Not 100% sure on the brand as haven’t come across a match for the N-001 serial number on mine, but the closest match so far does look like the Blitz comparing it to one on their website.

The most important bit is that it’s the uprated one which is good news!!
Cheers, Carl.
