It was a failure.
On the the morning of June 1, 1942, three Japanese midget submarines entered Sydney Harbour intending to attack the US navy cruiser Chicago, docked at the Garden Island naval base. they did not succeed, one Japanese torpedo exploded against a sea wall next to a Royal Australian Navy accommodation boat, the HMAS Kuttabul. Twenty one sailors died aboard the Kuttabul trapped in small bunk rooms on the lower floors.
This attack is known as the Attack on Sydney Harbor. During WWII, Japanese submarines attacked the Australian cities of Sydney and Newcastle.
yes the attack was successful! they had very good armed forces and they did what the needed to do and hopefully they will not... again!

No. Pearl Harbor is in Hawaii. Sydney Harbour is at Sydney, Australia.
It was a surprise attack, before a declration of war, on a Sunday morning against a nation at peace.
The midget subs did no actual damage
Sydney Harbor is an iconic landmark in Australia that can be experienced in various ways.
Japanese pilots from the Zuikaku and Shōkaku aircraft carriers are the pilots who bombed Pearl Harbor. There were also six mini submarines that were sent to attack the ships but they were not very successful.
The attack on Pearl Harbor occurred in an attempt by the Japanese to gain control of as much land as possible. The attack itself was very successful by damaging the ships in harbor. The one major point that was not expected was that none of the Aircraft carriers were in the harbor during the attack. Had they been, the US Navy would have nearly been wiped out according to information I have read. The information I have has come from various websites and books like "Day of Infamy" by Walter Lord.
