95 Maxima Starting problem and Misfiring problem

I have a 95 Maxima with 121K miles on it. recently I have noticed the car does not start on the first crank. It starts on the second or third crank. Also, I have notice some misfiring when I am accelerating (Its dead silence for couple of seconds).
I replace my Knock sensor 9 months ago with new split fire spark plugs.
I am not sure if it's the aftremarket spark plug or my Ignition coils.
I checked my coils with multimeter and they all have same OHM readings.
I know for sure that something is wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Another IL person You can get NGK Platinums for $38 shipped on eBay or you can get copper ones for like $12 for all 6.

Go to PepBoys or NAPA and get some NGK V-Power Copper plugs. I got it at NAPA since PepBoys didn't have them in stock.
