Go test drive one first, that should let ya know for sure if you need to adjust the seats or not.

I personally think that you can handle the seat height for Evo 9. I am 5'4 too and i am driving my Evo 9 with no problem. All you need to do is forward the seat. Its pretty nice actually because It's kinda high for a short guy like me and i can see the road very clearly. I just have to push a lil harder for the aftermarket clutch thats all. I think you can handle it pretty good. Goodluck!
