Good guess. The wing shape is similar to the Tibicen linnei of the eastern USA, but your cicada is likely an Amphipsalta sp. (zelandica?) http://www.flickr.com/photos/alstewartnz/6893481845/in/gallery-dancentury-72157629611555145/ You might also want to look through this gallery of Kiwi cicadas http://www.flickr.com/photos/dancentury/galleries/72157629611555145/
