Did you get a engine diagnostic done at Toyota. If you did not then getting one done may answer why it happens. But to take a shot in the dark ....It could be the cam sensor. Had a similar problem on my Suzuki where the engine stalls. Changed the cam sensor and that sorted the problem out....Hope you get it sorted out. Cheers mate.

Try loosening your throttle nut (I think this is what it's called) a bit, till you see an increase in rpm around 400. Then see if the problem persists. One of my friends had this problem with a Toyota. This is how we solved it. Hope it works in your case too...

You may want to have someone take a look at your gas tank [petrol] and make sure that no water or debris is present in there. Also what is the fuel level when the car start to die? if the fuel level is low you may have some contaminants in the gas tank. Have a look at the fuel filter as well. This is a good place to start diagnosing the problem.
