Air in the brake pipes. Old fluid. Worn seals in master cyclinder. Overheated brake pads and discs. If the pads are new they might not be bedded in yet; especialy if the discs are worn or ridged or scaled up.

Changing the caliper is an extension to the changing the brakes procedure.The 'extension' is to disconnect the brake line/hose from the caliper.Next extra step is to bleed the brakes - since the new caliper is going to be full of air when you first hook it up.See "Related Questions" below for more extensive coverage of the procedures...
