Default ITR stalls won't start for 2 minutes then runs fine again

Here's the problem...

-I start my car thats been off for a few hours
-I drive for about a block
-My car stalls and won't start for at least 2 minutes
-Once I get it to start the car runs perfectly fine

No CEL or any other warnings when the car is running.

In the morning I warmed up the engine before I drove it and I didn't have this problem. I encountered this problem in the afternoon and in the late evening. These were all daily driving situations.

I did quite a search through the Integra section and ITR section. It took me a while to figure out to use the "search through archive button". There are so many situations that weren't quite the same.

I really hope the situation is similar to this one

Coles notes of above: ECU is adjusting to climate/temperatutre/altitude and it's normal. If this scenario is applicable to ITRs then note that my car was in a higher altitude city but now it's in a city thats at or even below sea level. The weather also hasn't been consitant.

I'm a noob but any type of help would be greatly appreciated. I really love my car I hope it's nothing too serious. My uncle is a mechanic and I plan to take it to his shop when I can. Any piece of mind till then would help!
