You have to decide on a few things before you shop for suspension. Wat are you after with a kit or new springs? Only better ride? Load that is carried, amount of lift, amount of flex, price, service, availability...these are all questions you should have decided on before you shop. There is a ton of suspension kits available to you, most made in Australia. So decide on what you are after and start emailing the companies that sell the products. From my experience it is best to start with the manufacturer and they will lead you in the right direction for purchase via one of their distributors or directly from them. Also if you email a half dozen companies you can see what kind of service you get from each with their responses.

Hi Jose
I have MQ 160 and did a lot of reserch as to the best and most practicl suspension up grade for my one. I came to the conclusion that the OME set up was the best for me. I have distributor here and also the ride is very good on them as well as good dependabilty. I would strongly recomend you go through a distributor located in the philippines.
cheers
