Spark'd be my first port of call, Leads, plugs, maybe coil pack if the others don't do anything?

If you have put up with this for a while, why do you expect an answer inside 10 minutes. Your brother is probably on the money, but a "cough" is hard to diagnose over the net.

lol... Am I the only one who thought differently after reading the thread title?
Could be a number of things- fuel related, ecu, components failing. It almost sounds like it's running too rich when you floor it, but you would need to look into whats causing it |

my au3 sr does the same thing. just had leads, plugs changed, injectors serviced and new fuel filter and it still happens..
have you noticed at happens all the time, or just when low on fuel? mine always picks the worst time to do it, ie, trying to make a snappy u-turn, or pull out into traffic.. |
