no a clutch kit is like 150$ and for a shop to do it should only be about 400$
but you can do it its pretty easy

if you want to do ANY WORK to your civic then you should go invest in a chilton or haynes manual for your car. it will show you how to change stuff out just fine.

hardest part about the clutch swap is removing the axle shafts from the spindle and the rest is pretty easy. just need afew special tools, and when you have the tranny out dont forget to remove the flywheel and have it turned smooth! many people cheap or lazy out and dont and a ruff flywheel surface will eat away at your new clutch faster mainly during break in. and since the surface wont be perfectly flat the clutch pad wont have as much grip and might chatter or slip. so dont forget it. and be sure to use high temp grease on every pivot point to keep the clutch smooth and squeak free
