Good idea - this would meet my need timewise, but I see no way to get to HKG - even not in Y as an award.
There are various options via MEL and SIN or KUL (EK or 3K somewhere in the mix) but that's really out of your way and not really what I'd recommend/

The best I can find if you're dead-set on using points is:

5APR: SYD-NAN J FJ914 06:30-12:20
5APR: NAN-HNL J FJ822 23:59-10:50
5APR: HNL-LAX Y AA284 14:25-22:58
6APR: LAX-SFO Y AA2438 08:00-09:24

will obviously require an overnight in LAX. 94,000 points + $126.97 fines.

Might be worth you just taking the SYD-HNL and then book a direct HNL-SFO on a paid ticket should you decide on this route and decide to substitute an overnight hotel for a direct flight.
