Bleed the system and get all that air out of there. Then check the master, slave, and soft line for leaks. There should not be any fluid leaking out of any of them. Since it is easy to spill a bit of brake fluid when bleeding the system, wipe up the excess and wait a day or two and then check for leaks again. If you see either of them are leaking they should either be rebuilt or replaced. The kits to rebuild them are about $20+ (a piece) on mazdatrix and $60+ to replace each of them.
The clutch slipping over 4k might be a sign that it's on it's way out or cannot handle the 350hp. You could always drop the tranny and do an inspection of the flywheel, clutch and pressure plate.
