    HA!

    Not a hope I reckon.

    Hong konmg to oz is an international flight and you will have done a 12 hour journey to get there. You will be exhausted.

    I think you might be trying to cram abit too much in

    Yes I agree not enough time.

    Roughly speaking with your 6 hours:
    - 30 mins taxi to terminal, exit plane
    - 15/20 mins transit to immigration area (its a BIG airport)
    - 15 mins++ clear immigration (depends on queues)
    - 40 mins train to Kowloon or Hong Kong station

    <free time at best 1 hour>

    - 40 mins train to Airport
    - 30 mins clear immigration and security
    - 60 mins waiting room / boarding (long haul)

    You may get a pic or two but TBH you are gonna be rushing and rushing ... its a good airport so unless you can stay a night or two just relax there.
