Yes... the brake and the clutch master share the same fluid reservoir. because of this, you need to flush/bleed the clutch at the same time, or the old, dirty, moisture ridden fluid in the clutch line, master and slave will contaminate your new brake fluid.

As mentioned, plan on forcing 1-2 qts through the system, or you will have air trapped in it, and have to do it over. Be sure car is level and bleed the calipers in the proper order and sequence (inside/outside)

Also, as mentioned, switch between ATE super blue and gold - they are the same fluid, different colors.

Cheers!
