2005 S.E Clutch Fluid Flush

Hey guys, my clutch feels a little weird and I would like to flush the clutch fluid. I couldn't find any thing on the forum regarding this matter. Can any one direct me how to flush the fluid and more importantly what type/brand to use? Also I might just swap the clutch with a better clutch in the next couple of months. Any specific brands that suit the maximas. The car is a daily driver but I do spirited driving once in a while but no track use.
Thank you.

I just flushed my clutch fluid few weeks ago because it was sticking, haven't had issues since I did it. I removed all the fluid and replaced it with Synthetic dot 4 brake fluid. You know you bleed it just like the brakes, right?? It's a two man job and it's in a crappy spot. One pumps the clutch pedal and one opens and closes and refills as necessary.
The location is in front by the header, find the rubber hose that comes from master cylinder and follow it to the end, you will see it.

there's many different ways a manual won't shift normally?
