18 fps is a bit off standard for FCP so you'll not find an easy preset for it, but you can make it happen using a simple XML based trick:
First create a new empty sequence and save it as an XML file (using File menu > Export > XML...)
Next you need to edit that XML file in a text editor and change sequence's
rate >>
timebase property and
timecode >>
rate >>
timebase property to 18
Finally you then have to import that XML back into FCP (using File menu > Import > XML... and ignoring the errors)
... and the new sequence created will be the one you need.
Its described a little more clearly here:
