Hi , I only just started reading all this build your effects stuff and have no idea where i can get any of it in Australia.
Is there anyone on this forum who lives in australia that could answer my problems, it would be greatly appreciated

Where in Australia are you?

you should get the Jaycar and the Altronics catalogues, those are the main 2.
But some stuff (like matched Germanium transistors for a fuzz) don't exist in Australia.
Other places:
Rockby in Melbourne, Wiltronics in Ballarat.
I buy stuff from the USA (AllElectronics, Electronic Goldmine, Digikey, Jameco, and of course Small Bear for specialist DIY FX stuff. Just be sure to get it mailed via US Post Office (or it might cost a fortune!)

I like Jaycar alot. I'm in the U.S. but still order from them sometimes.
Prices are very reasonable. They have alot of very cool kits. They even have aluminum enclosures and DPDT stompswitches (only $3.25 U.S.$!)
Check out their capacitor and resistor assortment packs - a great way to start your parts collecting.
