Default Odd random ticking coming from motor *Help needed*

My s2000 is an 03 with 60k on it, today after stopping a couple red lights i heard a sort of ticking sounds coming from my motor im confused as to what it can be? sometimes it wont do it other times it will, in the middle of the ticking if i step on the throttle it will escalate with the the throttle for a quick sec then stop. Any indication as to what this may be?
