sounds like you either have a bad starter relay, or a bad starter.

I'd bet on the relay

I tried linking the two wires on the relay hoping it would start, but nothing happened.

I also found this. this is the regulator rectifier right

Is it normal for the relay to make that noise if its not getting enough juice?

ok, I can tell ya right now what the problem is. You need to replace the regulator/rectifier, charge your battery and it should start right up.
