Honolulu is 20 hours behind Sydney

Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM in Sydney is 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Honolulu.

Both teams are at their desks between 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM in Sydney and 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Honolulu. Plenty of room to work with: 6 hours of daily overlap means you can prioritise people's preferences over the clock. Keep the date straight: Honolulu is on the previous day versus Sydney, which can trip up Friday or Monday meetings. Note the seasonal wrinkle: when Sydney is on daylight saving and Honolulu isn't, the gap between them grows or shrinks by an hour.
