And for those who feel adventurous, Unicraft does make a conversion kit, at least in 1/72, for the Fw190T; it could be repurposed onto a kit of a late-model Zero.

How about a post-war air-racing Zero with a R2800 or a Centaurus?

How about a jet Zero using the T1 turbojet as proposed for the Fw190TL. 

...

The Fw190TL was projected to have a speed of 830km/h @ 8000m.  Imagine what a A6M TL using a much lighter airframe might have achieved.

Couple years ago I found this b/w profile of Fw 190TL, but I can't remember where...
... and kill me again
or take me as I am,
for I shall not change...
never...
