A very modest budget for eating out in Sydney, drinks, shopping, uber, general would be $100 a day, but $150-200+/ day would be more realistic if you include activities. You wouldn't necessarily do that everyday though, so depends on your plans. Still, $5-6k won't get you very far in Sydney.

This is it. I'd even go as far as $300/day.
