Yep, Dave is right. We took our bikes over to Oz a couple of months back for a few weeks of touring, at first glance the temp. import permit seemed to be the cheap way to go, but on calling up Oz customs to ask I was told that a Carnet is the only thing they will accept. ( in contradiction to what was written on their website at the time  )
A temp permit was possible in the past, a friend got in on one a while back, but not any more.
Cheers
Clint
