Angry Cold Starting

Hi

I am having problems starting my car from cold. If kicks over and revs to about 500 rpm I have to put my foot on the accelorator and eventually it goes upto 1,500rpm untill it warms up. It used to just go up to 1,500rpm on a cold start without me applying the accelerator.

Now It has had the spark plugs changed in last major service 18 months ago so they should be ok. Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks

What MY are we talking about here?

Does it idle correctly after it's warmed up?

Does the idle settle properly when slowing down and stopping, or does it nearly stall and hunt?

What's your mpg like?

It's a MY95 import WRX. After it has warmed up it idels fine, and no problems when slowing or stopping. The mpg seem to pritty much the same usual but hard to say as my car has only been doing this for a few weeks and have not used it enough to tell as do not want to run the risk of damage any futher.
