Default Rebuilding engine, but leaving stock pistons?

Hi, I'm planning on rebuilding my VQ35DE eventually since mines got over 200k and if I'm going to rebuild it, might as well build it with stronger internals as I also plan on adding a Vortech to it eventually. I read about forged pistons not lasting more than 60k due to piston slap on cold startups, so I'm thinking since the stock rods are really the biggest weak point in the engine, would replacing everything else with stronger materials and using new OEM pistons be a better route when it comes to longevity? I'd like the engine to last atleast 100k if I built it.
