is there a difference between the two calipers on the front? I just bought an abs version 240 and my parts car is a non-abs 240 and the abs one has a seized front caliper. So I was wondering if I could use the non-abs caliper on the abs car? Please let me know ASAP b/c I just bought the abs car and couldn’t even bring it home because the brakes start smoking after ten minutes of driving.

ABS has bigger calipers,brackets,rotors and pads. The rears are same as non abs.
