Answer
Caleb,

If the plugs are not under two years old replace them as this is the most common cause of long starts when cold.  Also, if you are not using premium fuel do so for a couple of tanks and add Lucas fuel treatment to clean the injectors.  I recommend this since it does not damage injectors.  Nissan vehicles are sensitive to additives and the injectors will become damaged if you use something too caustic.  I have had good luck with Lucas products and have melted injectors internally with other products.  Not worth the risk again...
