In GTA 5 it feels like it's very awkward/hard to drive at a constant speed limit, your car constantly changes gears and doesn't cruise very well

Are there any mods to make driving and handling more like GTA 4?

hell NOOOOOOOOOO ! 

I think the driving in GTA V is much better than GTA IV.. 

I agree with Shadow! I love IV's handling, granted it's not the vanilla handling though. :D

The handling in IV is very, very heavy. I'm pretty sure it is that way because the dev wanted to give a realistic feeling to the cars in the game, though in my honest opinion, GTA is not about realism. I clearly prefer the handling in V because the cars actually have brakes and acceleration, and are not crashing in a wall at every turn at high speed. Also drifting is easier, and that's even better.

The only thing I regret on V is that all the cars seem bridled to not go higher than ~120MPH, which is a shame, but probably understandable (the less fast the cars go, the longer the travel seems to be, the bigger the map seems to be).

I love Sgt.Kanyo's handling lines but yea, in general IV handling feels more realistic and cars are harder to drive which I like.

You can try to download this:

didn't test it but you'll find some tests on YT.

GTA V's driving physics are practical in terms of gameplay, but there is absolutely no suspension bounce in most cars, something I enjoyed in IV.

yeah ! I can´t stand arcadish V driving, it was pissing me of since I saw it ! Now I´m using modded handling and can´t imagine playing without that ... it also increases the car damage ... but still nobody made GTA IV like driving yet, not even a realistic one ... so i´m using snowday cheat when I patrol ... eventhough accelaration is ridiculously weird (like on snow) but overall handling is very similar to IV´s driving, car feels very heavy on the road ... I use this mod for car damage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za_MYH3vD0M download link is in the description ...

​This is also the main thing I dislike about GTA V's handling, but I believe GTA IV was no different.

I have a handling line that combines them both and I fell like it is the most realistic driving I have ever had compared to real life driving. Car's drift better, and the weights are appropriate for the vehicle size. Crash deformation is a bit sensitive but realistic overall. When it comes to GTA, I prefer a more realistic game than an arcade game, which GTA V vanilla handling line is. GTA IV and V vanilla handling lines are to be honest, complete laughable jokes.
