Try JDR Microdevices (http://www.jdr.com/).  If I'm not mistaken,
they will ship overseas.

How fast have you gotten the Zip to go with 70ns in DATA and
15ns in TAG?  I've seen a board go 12.5MHz with that combination.
Also, if you have stability problems, you can try moving the
cache settings progressively from 64K to 32K to 16K to 8K.
I have 64K installed, but at 13.75MHz, the Zip would not stabilize
until the board was set to 16K (even though 64K were installed).
Since I made comparisons of performance using the MegaDemo, which
showed that performance levels off at 16K of cache, this was ok. :)
