When replacing your rear right side of the brakes and stuff......what is exactly needed? Mine seized up and I just want to replace the whole thing. All I have is to get.....caliper, brake pad, brake fluid, rotor, and brake hose. Is that all that is needed to get that done? Or is there more stuff I have to get?

If you are replacing the caliper (Im not even asking why)

1) you wont need a new hose, but you should get new copper gaskets. thats of course unless you are upgrading to SS lines. But dont just put SS lines on one caliper.
2) Yes, you need pads, dont forget to get the rotor turned down if you can.
3) Fluid, yes
4) Rotor only if you cant get the original one turned down.

anyone know of a performance caliper for our cars?

or just your standard one like this would be good?

^well my car Is making a lot of noise from my rear right side. The noise sounds like a whisling, sqeeking sound. Plus they seized on me and won't move when I push the tire.

I don't have to buy 'em. My cousin Bobby (WildMax01) from Mario's Auto Repair buys 'em for me and installs 'em for me for free everytime I need pads, rotors, etc. He is a great cousin to have. Loves doing auto work for free!
