quick turnaround at AKL possible?

is it possible to do a quick turnaround HKG-AKL-HKG at AKL? the CX flight arrives at 11:15 and leaves at 12:50...I guess it should be the same aircraft? anyone knows how the immigration works there, do I need to spend time passing through immigration, or can I just get off the plane, go through a transit area and then back to the departure area easily?

I know...NZ / AKL should be a nice place for me to spend at least a couple of days...but I am just a bit short of EXP now and I don't foresee having much time before the end of the year for a vacation...so I figure I would rather do a quick mileage run now to get to EXP first...and it seems AKL is a good one in terms of cost/mileage...

thanks a lot!!
