$1200 to get clutch installed on DC5R!?!?

Wow... Give the guy a straight answer will you?

Typical clutch change is $500ish inc parts.

I would expect any shop could do the job in 3-4 hours.

Clutch changes are a fairly straight forward procedure.

I did one with a friend on a pulsar, neither of us had done one before took us about 8 hours to do.

So with two total amatures you could expect tops of $800ish. Ha ha.

Any mechanic can do a clutch change its simple and uninvolved, I wouldn't be picky about who does it.

More expensive car means more expensive work. Who told you to buy an expensive car? Serves you right.
Just like full respraying a Lamborghini compared to an eg. Same paint same work 50 times the price.

Holy sht... What a joke... Clutch change for a CRX and a DC5 is just like a normal car. Nothing special. Get off your high horse. Lambo vs Integra is ridiculous... A DC5R is NOT an expensive car, and is an extremely sensible choice, price and maintenance wise when it comes to someone who wants a sensible but sporty car.

To OP, yes, dealer prices can be very expensive. That's normal. Just go to a reputable mechanic and you will fine.

Well if that's what you think you're a peanut. A clutch/flywheel combo is an integral part of a car's performance. It transfers the engines power to the wheels. And you don't have to flog the car around a racetrack to notice the benefits. Do some research.
