This worsened and now most of the times it doesn't start but still sometimes it starts. So my first thought was the starter motor. After buying a new one and replacing it, it worked again for a day and then had the same problem. I just keep hearing the click of the starter relay but nothing happening. The cables should be fine as I measured the 12V on the main cable of the starter. I thought about the relay between the key and the starter, but couldn't really find it. A few relays at the drivers site were my guess, so I tapped them when the car wasn't starting, still nothing. Does anyone have an Idea what might be the problem? It has to be something electrical otherwise it would work sometimes and sometimes not.
Greetings from Italy!

Could it be too much resistance through the wiring going to the relay? You might not have to find the relay if you can access the cable. Here is a video diagnosing a similar problem on an 88' pickup with a 22RE that might help:
