Was the clutch slipping or just having a tough time engaging/disengagin? If it was actually slipping then it was the clutch itself. It was the latter then it was most likely a hydraulic issue. As far as whether the clutch master cylinder draws its fluid from the brake reservoir, I'm not too familiar with the Z31's setup. But a lot of cars do share reservoirs between the two.

oh dear lord. please buy a haynes manual.

the clutch and brake pedal are both hydraulic. they both run off brake fluid. THEY ARE BOTH COMPLETELY INDEPENDANT OF EACHOTHER.
