Need a feww suggestions: potential motor build

[jumaaneface]

So to start things off, I've had the msp for about 4 months. It's daily driven sitting at 131,046.

Car came with an aftermarket dp and exhaust. Looks to be vibrant maybe?
So far I've upgraded to a fmic and a sri.
I have no real plans to track the car ever or push it crazy hard, the potential loss isn't worth it to me.
Post day or two looks to be using some coolant with no signs of leaking.
I'm considering picking up a spare block to forge.
If I do forge I will never be pushing more than 220-250whp as it'd be more cost efficient to find something with a more reliable stock motor and more performance parts.

So, what suggestions would you guys have as to a list of parts I should purchase?

I'm going to pick up some wesico pistons
Most likely k1 rods
Water pump
Timing belt kit
Gaskets

Anything else I may be missing for a mild build of such?
Or should I do more?
My max I'm willing to put in is about 2k-3k
