Hello @Amatuer84 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your brick garage.

I propose having a good look at these discussions - Garage lining for stud walls stage 1 by @Dave-1 and   Garage lining for stud walls stage 2 by @Dave-1. It should give you a very good idea of how to frame up your garage. My best advice is to draw up a framing plan and make sure to measure each space accurately to get your frame to fit perfectly in the brick space.

I've placed some guides below to give you a starting point in your D.I.Y. journey. The general steps are to choose a starting point on your brick wall as the first space to be framed. You can then move forward section by section until you've gone around the room. 

I also suggest looking at this discussion - What size battens for double brick in garage by @mossy_74
