I recall reading (I think in this forum but I can't seem to locate the article) that someone made the suggestion that you change the clutch fluid in the clutch master cylinder resovior ever 10k miles or so. Use a baster to remove the fluid and replace with clean fresh DOT3 brake fluid. Press the clutch about ten times (engine stopped) and repeat the process. Change the fluid whenever it starts to discolor.
While it doesn't remove all the fluid, it replaces a majority of the fluid and seems to extend the life of the CSC.
A number of vehicles use a similar design to Nissan's. Dodge Viper is one that comes to mind off hand.
