hi I like to point out that temperate does not cover Sydney near airport, it should be called warm temperate, it makes a big difference, quoting suburbs also gives people an idea what will grow where,thank you

You're kidding right Frank? Near Sydney airport is neither sub-tropical, nor cool/mountain. Temperate covers a lot of the Sydney basin just fine, and the rest comes down to your aspect and nuances of where you live.

I have one website saying sub-tropical is all the way down to Sydney and another saying it stops just over the northern NSW border. Websites are only a guide.

Mike, yes. I was lead to believe that subtropical was from midway between Mackay and Rockhampton and extended into Nrthn NSW. However, as you say, 'Websites are only a guide', which is why I planted some things out of season (according to packets). For example, some people said eggplant won't grow here. It does.
