Default Brakes grabbing

My 92 Cx has a rear disc conversion, I'm guessing off an integra. So I changed the pads since they were making noise. Well I twisted the piston in as far as it would go but it was extremely tight getting the caliper on. It's so tight it's like it's grabbing all of the time.

The other rear caliper gave me problems as well and it ended up being bad and I had to replace it. But the piston on it wouldn't go in at all. So do you think the caliper is bad or is there something I am missing?

If it was seized then wouldn't it be stuck out? I was able to push it back in.
