The website www.ancestorsonboard.com (which is a pay per view site) lists the following emigrants to Sydney:
John McKenzie aged 24 1890 London/Sydney
John M. McKenzie aged 29 1894 " "
John McKenzie aged 28 1895 " "
John W. McKenzie aged 23 1899 " "
Might the 4th one's middle name be White, after his mother ?
His age and year of departure would fit his year of birth.

Apologies; arithmetic was never my strong point 
It's the 1st John McKenzie who might fit, being born in 1866.

As far as I know (without a subscription) the emigration records on fmp start at 1890.
From Jenn's link the wife with John in 1886 is Mary aged 30
http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/indexes/searchform.aspx?id=6
There is no further information online at ancestry. except the arrival date of June 4. This is unusual for assisted migrants - this John, however would seem to be 10 years older than your John.
John arriving 1882 is slightly closer to the mark, his wife is given as Elizabeth aged 21, and despite 4 duplicate entries on ancestry, there is no further information.
You can buy transcripts of the fiche information from the archives or from NSW transcription agents.
Have you found John in the census in Scotland - this would enable you to get the immigration year slightly more accurate.
What was the name of his daughter? It may be possible to find her birth - especially if you have an age at death from NZ.
Marriage indexes in Australia (and I would think most other places) don't show parent names. You have to (sadly) buy the certificate/transcript to see the parent names.

From my earlier post
This is the cheapest way I know of at the moment to get more information
You can buy transcripts of the fiche information from the archives or from NSW transcription agents.
If you follow the link I gave, you can see where to purchase from State records (NSW archives). These are the transcription agents - I know Laurie Turtle goes to the archives - I don't know about the others
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/howToSearch.htm#TranscriptionAgent
There may not be more information, I am not exactly sure which files Ancestry have transcribed, as I mentioned some of the other records for assisted immigrants on ancestry have more information than the one for John.

Have you checked freeBDM for your marriage - should be complete at this time
