Clutch problem
My clutch pedal is stuck to the floor. It can be returned to the normal released position by pulling it up. The pedal isn't floppy or anything, it actually seems to snap to the floor after a certain point. I checked the clutch fluid last week and it was fine. But now the reservoir is 100% empty. Are these the symptoms of a bad slave and/or master cylinder?

Nissan hydraulics have always been kinda shitty, and the earlier years had some defects and design flaws.
The newer model years (06+) had revised parts and clutch feel and smoothness is dramatically improved.
As soon as you replace these parts and add DOT4 fluid, your car will shift better than brand new.

This is a fairly common problem, pretty sure there's a whole thread dedicated to this https://g35driver.com/forums/drivetr...come-here.html
The simple fix is to bleed the clutch fluid at the slave cylinder so you have fresh fluid through-out the lines. The clutch line runs near the exhaust on that side, so the fluid breaks down easier.

Dig deeper into that thread (last few pages), it goes on to discuss bleeding the fluid as a fix. Ignore the part about siphoning out the reservoir only, it needs to be bled from the bleeder screw on the slave cylinder. I do this every spring now because my pedal sticks to the floor on a hot day, bleeding fixes it every time. It's cheap and easy preventative maint at this point. I'll probably replace master & slave cylinders whenever my clutch needs to be replaced and do it all once.
