You didn't mention the fuel filter. Has it been changed or checked?

Im having the same problem with my truck, replaced fuel filter, plugs, fuel pressure regulator, cleaned injectors- still takes several starts when it is cold to fire up. Once its hot is starts immediately. I have run into several people with the same problem that cant seem to pinpoint it.

I replaced the fuel filter a few days before i got the ne FPR, the old filter looked somewhat new but it didnt hurt to replace it. ehhget how about your fuel pump? Have you checked it DTC's?
