Totally improv here:

So for Zane to have rebuilt himself he must've had his mind survive to do so. If you had all the skills and tech to do a full body transplant could you do it without a mind to work from?

Maybe Zane has some Master Override button that allowed Zane's previous life to be completely wiped. He didn't do this after he died because he didn't have the insensitive to do so. He knew he would be revived by Samukai so in his mind he might one day make a flying machine and get off the island. If he did he would hunt down his son and flip the switch restoring those memories that he didn't want permanently wiped.

Sorry if this seems rather rag tag.
