Ok, well i posted a while ago that my right wheel area is ****ed up, when i jack up the front, the right wheel will not turn but the left wheel will, (in Drive). Now would that be a warped rotor or the caliper? I have both to replace, new slotted/cross drilled front rotors, and these VX calipers coming in.

EDIT: In reverse, when the right wheel is turned to the right, it squeaks mad loud. Anyone know what's causing it?

your caliper might have froze and is constantly gripping on the rotor.

Yes, after driving around it gets rediculously hot, the rim, the rotor, everything around there. Should I just slap on the VX calipers till I can get a similar one to my EX's?

then how come the abs si calipers and rotors are not the same parts, nor are the pads, shims or any other part compared to a non ABS SI?
