If you're talking about looks then it's all about personal taste, and IMO brakes are so darn useful that I'd keep them on no matter what. If you intend to ride in traffic they're required to make your bike legal anyhow. Structurally your bike is fine with them.
The lightest bmx bike is owned by Samuel Powell. His bike ways 18.3 pounds and is built custom from the ground up. It totalled to about $2,300.
Save up money for it
before doing the barspin turn your bars the other way and that should fix it
Not quite, although they can be very similar. One place where they might differ is that some BMX frames oight not be set up to take brakes, while good braking is usually real important on a trials bike. It's also quite common for trials bikes to use 24" wheels, while BMX is almost only 20".
A BMX is more like a piece of sports equipment, it's mostly ridden standing up and not really used for stransportation. A comfort bike can be ridden while seated and isn't good for tricks and jumps.

I've never seen a BMX set up for disc brakes, I really doubt that they exist. Braking isn't a huge feature in BMX-ing to start with. There are some 24" Dirt/trial MTBs that can have discs. If you insist I'd suggest that you look at Magura hydraulic rim brakes. There's a chance that these can reasonably easily be fitted to a BMX, and people are usually reall happy with their performance.
A true race bike is probably lighter, and may have another brake set up than a "normal" BMX. also you might have different parts that make the bike itself heavier, like if you are comparing a street or dirt bike to a race bike the back rim on the street/dirt bike the axle is going to 14mm instead of 3/8 axle, but other than that theres really nothing but gearing
BMX bikes pretty much all have 20"wheels, which makes all frames very similar in size. On top of that BMX is almost entirely ridden standing up, so bike size doesn't matter as much as it does for road riding for instance.
Kyall Renshaw was the first person to carve up on a treadly.
Sorry but its not possible Hoffman bikes are $200 and up
depends what for but if you want a good al arround bike id say the forum line up or the convert frame
