You just get a 24-hour visa when you land - they just look at your boarding pass and stamp it. You have to stay in the airport though.

If you order and pay for it before 1 July you won't pay GST. At least that's what it says on ATO website.

Looks like it's as easy as removing half a dozen screws and popping it in. Should be a 5 minute job.
