Well, you don't add in those things. That is not a Zero. It, as is, is an all offense design philosophy Japanese choice to get maximum performance in a turning dogfighter of long range and good altitude band performance with a 750 kWatt aero-engine. You want self-sealing fuel tanks, armor, and the other jazz you buy or beg for a Wildcat and teach your pilots the USN way of how to fight. Then when you have the option and the proper pilot training, you get a Corsair and spend the money to make it "British".
Oh, it's still a Zero, just farther down the development chain

heavier engine, but now had Radio, armorglass and seatback armor and some tanks(and more of them too) had basic self sealing, coated with unvulcanized rubber.
But in 1944, was bait to Hellcats and Corsairs.
But there isn't anything there(besides the 13mm guns and engine) that couldn't have been done in 1940, if the IJN would have wanted some pilot survivability at the cost of range, maneuverability and a bit off top speed
