What the heck happened to my fluid!!!!?

Long story short, I tried to "drive" my 280zx today after about 2 years of sitting around (yeap I know), so basically my foot went all the way in when I tried to hit the clutch, brake fluid its fine by the way, its just the fluid for the clutch that its like this, it looks good enough to eat

O yea, how bad is it?, do I have to take everything appart?, or a nice flush could work?

It just like someone filled that thing with grease.

That's one fucked master cylinder. I would replace it and the slave, just to be on the safe side... and don't forget to flush the lines.

yeap, im looking at the prices for both already, not bad, it'll be about 50-60 for both, are those the only two things I need to replace?, besides flushing the lines? im not too familiar with the whole clutch system, so not sure what other components might be royally fukced.

its just the master, lines, and slave. I'd go ahead and replace them all, now would be a good time to upgrade to braided lines.

That is some nasty looking shit btw.

dumb question, why would I do braided lines if the lines are metal already?

That is what brake fluid turns into when it is neglected. By "braided line" he means the rubber hose that goes from the clutch hardline to the slave cylinder. Replace the master and slave and if you can find one the clutch hose with a braided one as well. If not just do the master and slave and flush the system REALLY good.
