I have that problem on my d15, you start it, it stalls right away when its -10 or so... Sometimes i have to start the car three or four times before it will run!

it's probably the fuel pump or the fuel pump relay . I had the same problem with irradic idle and sometimes it was hard to start if it had just been running , especially on hot days. My prob. was the fuel relay it 's a bit of a bitch to get at it's on the fender wall , inside the car, behind the change drawer. Hope this helps good luck
