You replace them with one existing car in-game, so it should appear in its stead.
Installing cars is a fidgety business, you need to install 2-3 at the time, start the game and make sure it isn't crashing and then install a few more - Rinse and repeat. Makes it easier to find out which cars are crashing the game, happens quite often.
And no idea on the performance.

In addition to what Sethos said, you can have the custom car replace one of the cars you can only get via cheat code so that pedestrians won't have them all over the place. I noticed with the Chrysler Crossfire mod, when I drive it, no one else ever has it. I tried another customer car, a Ferrari (I forget the specific mod) and it caused every damn car near me to also be a Ferrari. It's a well known glitch, but one I didn't want to deal with so I removed the Ferrari mod.
By the way, he uploaded a ton of shots from the 1.3 Beta.

Is that a high res cockpit? or is it just downsampled like crazy? Vanilla GTAIV has some really low res dashboards that just don't hold up with the FPS mod.
I finally got 1.25 working on 1.0.7.0, along with First Person mod, simple trainer, and ScRYeD's config. Damn. I meant to just take the game for a spin last night and I ended up playing for about 4 hours just walking around in first person and taking random screenshots. The craziest thing is that when I looked back at my history of screenshots the lighting progressed from morning to night and at a quick glance looked just like any tourist's photo album of their day in NYC. Wild. I've got about 12 shots I wanted to share, all captured at 1080 / max settings and downsized to 720. Like it's been said a million times before, it's just amazing how much detail is in this game. Stunning.
I might upload the rest a little later, so I don't flood this thread.

How my config going for you, if ya want a few more fps (though you won't get much more) go ot the iceconfig file down to
[SHADOW]
FilterQuality=0 = 0 is best quality shadows and 2 is the worst looking shadows
CharacterShadowMultiplier=2.0 = lower this a bit
CarShadowMultiplier=2.0 = lower this a bit
Can anyone recommend me a resource besides gta4-mods.com for high quality custom cars?
I'm thinking of doing the ground works for my own overhaul pack based on 1.0.4.0 and only using high-quality models and use low end cars as well, not replace all the crappy cars in the game with expensive luxury cars which a lot of the packs does, annoys me.
EDIT: By "Low end" I mean cars like this instead of the Blista

http://www.gtaforums.com - modders post on this site a bit, trying to find the mods you want is a pain in the ass though.
http://www.gtagarage.com/mods/index.php
they are the only other two GTA IV modding sites i go to.
usually what gets uploaded to these 2 sites appear on GTA4-mods.

I used the Volkswagon Corrado V6 as my Balista, suits the cars era. I also agree on hating to use top end cars to replace every model in the city, I usually try and pick something of the same type; era, power, balance.
Whats the story with changing the handling values, you just manually go into the file and copy paste the values or do you have to do them manually?
Also could I get a bit of help with the AA was asking about earlier?

Mine is crushing blacks pretty badly, losing a lot of detail as a result.
Also enabling some sort of AA, what is everyone using?

I've followed the couple of different installation instructions, including this one, and I still can't even get in-game with this mod and my Steam version (1.0.4.0). I only get as far as the initial copyright and logos (before the menu) and it seems as if the game just hangs at a black screen. I've tried just hitting enter through it as suggested, but no go.
I haven't sorted through the entirety of this thread, but is anyone else having this problem?

Sethos said:Yeah, most cars come with handling values by the creator you just copy and paste in, else you could just leave the ones already there if you find an equal replacement.
Oh and that R8 is stunning.
Definitely keeping that.
Is it simply the downsampling of the picture that makes your pics come out so smooth?

GTA4-mods.com doesn't load 80% of the time I go there
Here's the first baby steps for my car-pack
Will probably be using the Realistic Handling mod per default for all cars and basically only change the model unless there's a fantastic handling model included. Most of the handling models with custom cars are quite rubbish, so might as well get an authentic feel. Then I'll try and get a well rounded spectrum of cars and hopefully some high quality models, although there's tons of crap and mostly only high-end cars have great models.

Currently using nothing, starting on a clean slate with a new GTA IV installation ( With all the mods etc. ) then I'll install one car at a time and see which ones crashes, causes traffic bug etc.
Although my initial wish of doing a bunch of lower-end cars might be out the window, there's just not enough quality models of standard cars so I'll scrounge whatever I can and then it'll be higher end cars for the rest of them.
I'm obviously aiming for a Gaf release ( If anyone's interested? ) So I'll gladly take suggestions on quality models with proper handling stats too.
Admiral replacement:
If you haven't already check these out Sethos, there's a few muscle and low end cars for your pack:

Here's my Turismo replacement for the pack
EDIT: Lucky, the vanilla one is above, great comparison Even the same colour.
Game settings are mostly High / Very High ( Shadows & Reflection ) with sliders on 70, Vsync off and that's about it. In the screenshot it's actually vanilla textures, believe it or not and I'm using iCenhancer 1.2.5 with H1Vltg3's modification of it and my own tree setting ( See first page ).
Game is running at a smooth 45 average FPS and easily hitting 50-60.

This thread makes me want to upgrade my Q9550+5850 even though for 99% of the games, it runs better than fine (I've been mainly playing Portal 2 and Terraria lately and for those two games my rig is overkill).

I so much agree. I bought 3 different versions of the game, only to quit each version at around 30% completion. Now, I really enjoy just driving around. The city really comes alive and becomes the main character of the game. Sooo much detail, so much content. Just watching the world can be entertaining.
Now that hardware has allowed me to overlook its technical deficiencies, I'm actually enjoying the game's narrative.
