Changing the save directory isn't technically possible, but with the use of symbolic links you could trick GTA into using a different save directory.

 

Check out the following link for instructions on how to create symbolic links.

Check out The Hero's portablegta plugin. It moves the save directory to one inside the game's root folder called userfiles. Works with III, VC and SA 1.0.

This DLL makes III,VC,SA use gamedir/userfiles instead of "My Documents/GTA bla User Files", so it's like a portable GTA installation (Thanks Claude_Lib for the idea):

http://gta.rockstarvision.com/workshop/portablegta.dll (src: http://gta.rockstarvision.com/workshop/portablegta.cpp)

Download the mod above, then rename the file extension from portablegta.dll to portablegta.asi.
Place the portablegta.asi file into <path-to-game>\scripts.
Run the game, exit to desktop, and then delete the contents inside <path-to-game>\userfiles.
Copy everything from %USERPROFILE%\Documents\GTA3 User Files into <path-to-game>\userfiles folder.
