Should be some hard ones in here: http://ocw.mit.edu/high-school/physics/, you can filter by topic. Usually, the harder questions there are the exam-type questions. Some of the practice problems might be a challenge as well, I haven't really looked at them before.

Other MIT OCW courses will also have problems: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/physics/8-01sc-physics-i-classical-mechanics-fall-2010/modules-overview/. Click the topic you want, and then go to 'learning activities'. There should be 'concept problems' and 'challenge problems'.

Be prepared for this to go way beyond what we cover in VCE Physics. E.g. Non-constant acceleration will require calculus.
If you stick to the topics covered in VCE Physics (e.g. force, momentum, energy, one-dimensional and two dimensional kinematics) you should be able to do them. I can't guarantee the questions will not require mathematics beyond VCE level though.

If you get a Specialist Maths textbook, they usually have far better Mechanics problems, anything that doesn't involve Variable Forces (and hence Variable Acceleration) can be done using physics knowledge :)
