Does your MY06 STi have a MetaSat system?
I had a clicking on the RB, every few minutes when the unit was trying to link to the network & it turned out to be the SIM in the MetaSat system. New unit fitted about 4 years ago & no clicking or problems since!

They are the ignition and fuel relays, I had a similar problem but mine got worse, turned out it was a dodgy earth connection.
