Go to a dealer & they'll rip you off as they'll charge you £600.00 + (inc fitting).
If you're willing to drive to near Horsham then i'll give you a number of a scooby specialist who does a very decent price.
Mail me.

From a dealer the clutch is about £350-£400 for a standard one & then the labour is 3-4hrs (at a guess) on top of that 
Edited to say "Don't quote me on the price of the clutch." I've just heard of it costing £600.00 or more at a dealer to fit.
I'm sure someone will confirm

I don't actually know where you get a Subaru cluch other than from a dealer but I know that Mark Aigen (lateral performance) sells the daddy of all clutches for about £450.00 & apparently it's bulletproof . Other options are AP, Helix etc... That's if you want an uprated one?
£150.00 is pretty standard if they're quoting 3hrs labour. I think dealers are maybe a bit more.

i wood recommend u go for an updated un like AP or the various other good uns as a lot of the cost, unless u have a special friend
, is the fitting so u might as well spend a bit extra on the unit as it IMO will give much better performance for not a great deal more cash 
Si (+recently fitted AP organic jobbie, lightened flywheel & lightened wallet)

I am also looking for a new clutch for my STI Type R.
I got a price from Scoobysport for something like £760 inc VAT & fitting.
This was for a Helix organic clutch and also included - release bearing, exchanged re-machined flywheel, gearbox oil and also suggested replacing the thrust bearing while I was having the clutch replaced. The above price includes fitting.
I don't really think its worth going for a standard clutch as my car is running 319Bhp and from reading posts on here you can still get the "Scooby clutch judder" after a very short period of the clutch being replaced.
I know Scoobysport is a long way from you but should give you some idea on price.

Maffa, just to point out that when dad worked for the dealership it was about £1200 (think it was around £1180) for a fitting of a clutch. THat was the cost of the clutch, fitting and new flywheel. It was such a joke but loads of people used to pay it!!
Find out a good place and ask about before you go. You can get a clutch fitted nice and easily for £400 if not less. Just find out! So may cowboys near here have quoted £300, sh*t themselves when doing it, buggered it up and the customer ended going to the dealership and then paying another grand to get it fixed!
Not saying everyone is a cowboy, just make sure you find out someone who has used them before
