Check your wiring to the starter, battery terminals, chassis and engine earths. If they check out it's more than likely the starter solenoid.

I'd say starter motor? Have the same problem with another car of mine and was told that's what it is.

Yeah - Sounds like starter motor solenoid.

My Supra was notorious for it.

Id have to sit there and click it - sometimes over 20 times before it would start.

If its only two clicks at dont worry too much - it'll get worse.

I think tapping the starter motor with a hammer temporarily helps if it wont start.

definatelty starter motor, just note he says tapping, dont do what some people do and belt the living crap out of it, if it is a sticky solenoid, this will help till it dies.
