Starter solenoid problem

Hi fellow Supra owners . i've got a 94 plate N/A auto. when i go to start her i just get a starter solenoid clicking it will do it 5 or 6 times then the supra starts . i've checked the battery all good , checked the output from the alternator all gd . I'm i looking at a knackered starter solenoid or a knackered starter motor (but the starter motor does start the car ok) Is the starter solenoid built into the starter motor . i know when i turn the key i can here the solenoid clicking but not engauging to starter motor. Any idea's ?

Probably the copper contacts are worn you can buy a starter refub kit : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-SUPRA-MK4-JZA80-3-0-inc-TT-TWIN-TURBO-STARTER-MOTOR-SOLENOID-REPAIR-KIT-/290607555264?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item43a98f62c0 Probably the most cost effective repair. Check the connections on both the battery and starter motor first though and make sure they are good. If it is the contacts, a refurb kit is a sight cheaper than a new starter motor! :) Worked for me anyway!
