Default car sometimes doesnt start after turbo

hey guys...
my car sometimes doesnt start, it doesnt even crank, like when you turn the key without pushing in the clutch... i just bought a new battery a couple weeks ago so i dont think its that... i can start the car by rolling it and popping the clutch but when i try to start it normally it jus doesnt turn over... but like i said this is only sometimes... sometimes it starts fine... another thing is when i cant start it and i start the car by popping the clutch, after i drive around for a while, if i turn the car off, i have no problem starting it immediately after i turn it off...
is this a sign of my starter going bad??? i searched but couldnt really find anyone with the same problem that i am having.... someone please have the answer!!!
thanks

take the starter off and bring it to autozone and have them test it, or the only other thing i could see that is faulty would be your igntion switch

it sounds like the starter or the connection to the starter.

get somebody to help you with this, when you crank and you don't hear anything, have a friend check the signal wire at the starter to see if you are getting the signal for it to start, if not, then your igntion switch is bad
