Default Why wont it start?

Alrighty boys n girls I got a mystery starting problem. Mech has tried to look at it but it wont do it for him and he cant see anything obvious, thought it was a starter motor issue but that's been repaired (they didn't actually find anything wrong with it cept a couple of connections and they got fixed) so now I'm stuffed if I know.

Whats happening:
I disarm the alarm, get in the car, key in ignition, put in my pin code, dash lights light up ..... all normal things... turn the key and I got nuthin. The fuel pump primes but other than that I get nothing. Sometimes I get the click sometimes I don't. Everything is lighting up, I can turn on lights, wipers, radio, aircon all that stuff. Battery is new and checks out fine.

I'm thinking it has to be either.....
*a connection issue somewhere?
*an alarm problem ... maybe its not disarming or something?
*an immobiliser issue?
*something wrong with my key in barrel?
*ecu problem?

The confusing thing is I can shut the car up and re-arm the alarm, disarm it again and go thru the process and still get nothing, I can wiggle and plug in n out and hit with hammers anything I like under the hood and get nothing. I can rock the car back and forth and push it up n down the driveway and put it in gear and any other random thing I have been told to try and get nothing. But then for no particular reason I can go out there and try again just get in and do normal start procedure and it will start like nothing was ever wrong.

So far there is nothing that seems to have any effect on whether or not it starts, it just decides to all of a sudden..... and once I get it started for the day I can go for a drive stop and turn it off and go do what ever come back get in and she starts no worries. Some days I go out there and have no problem then other days I do.

Anyone??? Anything??? Anything at all???

All input is much appreciated
