Default whats wrong?

Hi chaps

This is not mega serious but here goes ,

My97 turbo starts first time runs fine has loads of power etc etc,But when i aproach a junction after a good run , and have to slow down i go from third to second and when in second i hit the brake and dip the clutch at the same time like i did in my prelude and then go to put it in neutal. But very occasionly the car just cuts out ????. i dont know if subaru' s just dont cope with this ?, or wether im not that use to it yet?, but its happend 2 times in the 3 weeks since i have owned the car ?

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Cheers Dan

I've got an MY96 UK Turbo, had similar sort of problem, kept cutting out when the car was stopped after nice little blasts, seems ok now. Did'nt manage to find out what it was though.
