As far as i've seen there are no apps that let you text a New Zealand number. If your looking to text overseas textPlus is pretty sweet. It texts app to app, iOS to Droid to Standard Cell

Best bet would be been using Skype, but then you will have to pay Skype rather than use txt credit on your SIM.
If you using 2 degrees SIM, you can send SMS by go to Settings -> Cellular Data -> SIM Applications -> Send a text. It would allow you to send SMS using your phone credit, but you won't be able to receives any SMS, however.

I actually found one last night and remembered your thread.
Heywire allows you to text for free.

If you jailbreak you can use SwirlySMS and send native SMS through your cell carrier (ie 2°)
