First off, visit a travel agency in KL. They would be best to advise you on getting to Sydney , on a variety of airlines that serve that city. They will also be able to arrange an Electronic Travel visa for you.
It would of course be preferred that you have some sort of documentation such as address, your friend’s name, and phone number ie mobile phone with you. A letter from your place of employment in Malaysia helps too. How long you have been there, and how long of a holiday you will be taking. If you do not have a job currently in Malaysia, then you might be asked how you are going to support yourself whilst on holiday.
There is no easy way to pass through immigration , especially in Australia. You will be asked questions as to why you are going to Sydney, how long you will be staying, who you will be seeing etc.
You might be asked to go to a secondary check, which is to verify your resources. Once you pass through that, you will be asked to go through customs check. Please do not bring in any meat, food, plant or even wood products into Australia. They are very strict with that.
But above all, just go and have a good time in Australia.
