Good evening,

Do you have the trans-axle out and down to the clutch?

Can you post a picture of what you see?

The g35 is a rear wheel drive. I cannot separate transmission from Moyer to expose clutch.

Did you check the clutch fluid in the clutch master cylinder?

I attached the procedure for the slave cylinder on the bell housing. That is a common failure for this issue.

Removal and Installation
REMOVAL
1. Drain clutch fluid.

CAUTION: Do not spill clutch fluid onto painted surfaces. If it spills, wipe up immediately and wash the affected area with water.

2. Remove clutch hose from operating cylinder.
3. Remove operating cylinder mounting bolts and then remove operating cylinder from vehicle.

INSTALLATION
To install, reverse the removal procedure, following the cautions below:
^ Install hose with care so that it will not be bent or twisted.
^ After completing the procedure, bleed clutch hydraulic system.

Cannot get clutch to release so I can separate transmission from motor. Have car in neutral all bolts out of transmission.
