Question: How cost about taxi from Kinkaku ji to Kiyomizu temple?

That's all the way across town, but your taxi driver should be able to take a route that avoids the city center. The trip is about 9.5km so it should cost around 2500 yen by regular taxi, but you can save a few hundred yen by going with a small size taxi.

Or you could catch a bus (I think it's No. 12, or No 63), but as you say they are slow, and they stop everywhere.

If you take the bus, take a #59 bus right near the entrance (same side of the street) to Kinkakuji.
Go 7 stops to SANBON IMADEGAWA and change to a #102 bus.
Go 8 stops to HYAKU MAN BEN and change to a #18 bus.
Go 3 stops to HIGASHIYAMA GOJO.
Walk up the hill to Kiyomizu.
