Default Little tapping noise on my RA.........

sometimes i get a little ticking noise like tapetty from the engine,I know theyre loud engines to start with so I may be being paranoid, and theres definately no sign of power loss , just had it imported and havent done a filter and oil change,what do you guys think, its a 95 STI Type RA

I have the very same thing on my 95 RA, i've decided it's a noisy lifter,and as there solid with shims,it's a cam out job to put right.The noise is worse some days than others to.
