Hey, i took a vidio..if anyone was interested of my 18r-gu i just droppin in my ra40..
its got sound and all...its not a big high quality vid, but you get the idea.
So heres the link!
i think its only 1.4 megs..
www.wn.com.au/leky/18rgeu.mpg
There, its nothin special as i said, but yeh.
On that note, i cant get it to idle smoothly.
Im pretty sure its a carby tuning problem...could be electrical.
It idles, but it coughs and splutters fair bit.
Anyone with carby tuning info, or any other info that might help would be much appriciated.

Sounds about right for a stocker 18R-G... gotta love that induction roar.

yeah sounds fine. Bit quiet from what im used to..... 
Double check your ignition timing and idle speed control screw. Timing should be 12deg BTDC (the leftmost of the 3 markings on crank pulley) at around 800rpm.
Otherwise 18rg is cool
