The run down:

My sr20 s13 has had some electrical problems.. and lately my car hasn't been starting like it should. I put the key in and crank it all electrical works.. lights etc. But sometimes it doesn't roll over its not even sputtering or wanting to start.

For example this morning going to class: It didn't want to start at all... I would only hear the clicking from the starter and something under my dash clicking (not 100% sure what it is) then I waited for a good 10seconds and cranked it again, and it started right up. HOWEVER I was only away from my car for about 1hour and 30minutes and I go to my car and try starting it NOTHING happens at all tried cranking it about 30 times... still nothing. But when I jump the car it starts up..

Any help?
