Connecting thru AKL, please advise

I have never been to AKL previously. Am planning to do as part of my *RTW:

CHC-AKL,/x (NZ-C)
AKL-SYD, (TG-F)

I was wondering what the procedures are about connecting for the above.

1. Will I arrive and depart at the same terminal at AKL? Is this an airside connection, or do I need to come landside? What would be a reasonable connection time?

2. Do I need to clear security again?

3. Can I be checked thru to SYD at CHC despite connecting from NZ to TG?

4. Will the luggage be checked thru?

5. How easy is AKL to connect thru?

6. Does TG have its own F lounge, or do I use the NZ F lounge?

7. Is there immigration clearance / additional taxes etc that need to be paid when leaving NZ at AKL?

Apologies about the numerous questions. Would really appreciate any help!
Thanks
AJ
