Your right caliper will work but if you drive in places that are dusty, like say the earth for example, then that caliper will fail faster and your caliper will seize. If your going for cheap then go for a single rotor replacement. You really won't notice much change in braking performance. I like to replace brakes and as a set and rotors as a set. If one needs it, it's likely that the other one will to. As for the caliper, you'll probably just need to replace just the one. Again if one has failed the other may fail soon after. If you've got a little money and time, it may be worth to do a complete overhaul of your braking system.
