There is a problem, if you connect blizzard to it it will work only Zorro II mode and then you can't use mediator. You should buy cyberstorm or any other A3000/A4000 acelerator, wich are much more rare and that's why more expensive.

Why don't you just buy mediator? Do you really need zorro bus????

Z3i has a zorro III, it also has a A3000/A4000 cpu slot. If you want to use it as a zorro III you will need to put your accelerator to CPU slot not a passthrough connector.

With Cyberstrom and Z3i you can add mediator to it.

It just not make a sense, you will get really unreliable computer. Much better would be make a choise between zorro and pci. Or even better get A3000 or A4000.

If you really want both zorro/pci, you should get this, in fact this is only way to keep blizzard and get pci http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/eboxz4
