Personally, I'd take a layover in LAX for the day since that QF11 doesn't make the 107 connection and flying straight to the East Coast is a killer. You could do SYD-LAX QF11 and then LAX-JFK on QF107.
Have to be there same day
obviously chance to upgrade on A380
Go all the way on 107 - flight change to AA in LAX is a real pain - do it often - however be aware with the budget problems in the US the lines in LAX for admission to the US will be "hell on earth" - enjoy the trip and just relax on 107 - great 747 and good staff.
Would like to minimise time spent at LAX if possible, wondering if the 4hrs is enough? Cheers
Go through MEL A380 QF93 then change to QF107 from LAX.
For a taste of what might be, a few days ago I flew from Montreal to Phoenix and spent a bit under 90 minutes standing in line for security, immigration, etc, at YUL.Go all the way on 107 - flight change to AA in LAX is a real pain - do it often - however be aware with the budget problems in the US the lines in LAX for admission to the US will be "hell on earth" - enjoy the trip and just relax on 107 - great 747 and good staff.

Yes, but with QF107 there's no terminal change and there's very little chance of you missing the flight because everyone who's continuing on has to clear immigration as well. ISTR that you get a guide through immigration if there's risk of delay as well.Dont you have to clear customs regardless of plane change?
Glad I went QF11 on A380 as upgrade came through overnight
Great outcome as per your OP! Hope you enjoy the experience. Looking forward to your feedback.
