it shouldn't be too hard to change a caliper, you just have to know how to bleed brakes, you can probably get a caliper at the dealer, i don't know how much, or check local parts stores. you baiscally need to release handbrake, take wheel off, drain brakes, take caliper off as well as brake line, take pads out too and put new one in. can be done in a few hours if you have parts.

I wouldn't worry about noises though unless it's a worn brake pad squeek, other than that, if you can stop without pulling to one side or the other i wouldn't worry about it.... unless you see some thing broken

p.s. mine doesn't wiggle either, 95 240sx se
