Cold Weather Starting..

My old method of starting my car is getting more and more inconsistant. I live in Portland, Or and the Columbia Gorge sweeps in some might cold air. I have to crank her over quite a bit to get her started. Will a higher torque starter and a hotter coil do it for me? As of right now i have the stock coil (so it looks like) on there. What do you suggest I do in general, and if it is coil more specific suggestions there, if you will.

Oh yeah, its my daily driver, too. So i need it in the mornings...

Wes,
Are you running a Qjet? If so, the well plugs might be leaking causing the gas to drain out of float bowl. Thus causing you to crank longer to fill the bowl.
