I'm thinking of putting redline synthetic MT Fluid in my car. Since my clutch is showing signs of wear when the car is cold, I think I will need a new clutch in about 10 -15k miles. Does changing the clutch require draining the MT fluid? Should I wait until I replace the clutch to put the new fluid in? Thanks.

Do it at the same time. Clutch replacement means the tranny has to come out. And the cv joints must come out too. You have to drain the tranny before the cv axles come out or else you will have tranny fluid all over. So just wait until the clutch job.
