Product Requirements Document (PRD) & Multi-Phase Engineering Execution Plan
Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): The 1985 Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex 3D Interactive Studio Showroom & Mount Haruna Touge Drift Simulator combines a 405,785-triangle procedural Blender bmesh coachwork asset (verified across 31 visual parity iterations plus v201–v203 non-boxy contoured door shells, doorway beltline seal classification, and 10 authentic JDM exterior details) with a zero-dependency C-to-WebAssembly (clang --target=wasm32 -O3) 1,000 Hz 14-DOF multibody vehicle dynamics solver executing in 35 µs/step at a locked 60 FPS (~85 draw calls).
01 Executive Summary & Product Goals
METRICS & TARGET SLOSMost web-based 3D automotive configurators and browser driving games suffer from one of two structural compromises: either they use low-polygon static shells with boxy slab doors and arcade physics, or they require multi-hundred-megabyte game engine downloads. This application delivers both museum-grade coachwork inspection and 1,000 Hz multibody drift simulation directly in standard WebGL2 + WebAssembly with zero external runtime dependencies.

05 Contoured Coachwork & Non-Boxy Door Engineering Deep-Dive (v201)
ROOT-CAUSE REMEDIATION & VISUAL PROOF
When inspecting an articulated 3D vehicle while doors or pop-up headlights are closing (doorLeftTarget: 1 → 0), any flat THREE.BoxGeometry inner door card, rectangular sill block, or protruding headlight underside box becomes immediately conspicuous as a "boxy slab". In v201, three surgical architectural fixes eliminated all boxy extrusions across both the Studio Showroom and Touge Simulator.
Cause A // Inner Door Card Slab FIXED
Symptom: Previously, buildDoorJambsAndInnerCards() attached a flat rectangular BoxGeometry(0.032, 0.54, 1.04) inner door card and thick armrest bricks to doorLeftPivot / doorRightPivot.
v201 Fix: Replaced with createContouredDoorShellMesh()—a 5-station extruded profile matching the exact exterior door curvature (x = 0.766m → 0.806m → 0.778m) with a sleek 26 mm shell depth.
Cause B // Rectangular Sill Box FIXED
Symptom: The chassis door aperture sill used a flat BoxGeometry(0.11, 0.028, 1.07) at y = 0.254 that jutted horizontally out of the curved lower rocker cladding.
v201 Fix: Replaced with a low-profile 8 mm stainless scuff plate recessed cleanly inside the rocker sill at x = ±0.728m, y = 0.244m plus contoured A/B-pillar shutline faces.
Cause C // Pop-Up Pod Underside FIXED
Symptom: setupHeadlightPivot() added a BoxGeometry(w, h*0.88, d*0.88) housing block that poked out below the fender nose when headlights retracted.
v201 Fix: Trimmed the internal shroud so it stays strictly behind the lens and auto-hides (shroud.visible = angle < 0.28) as the pod closes flush.
// Exact AE86 outer door cross-section profile X(y) matching Blender mod1_ae86_body_and_lights.py
function doorOuterProfileX(y) {
if (y <= 0.28) return 0.766 + (0.788 - 0.766) * Math.max(0, (y - 0.242) / (0.28 - 0.242));
if (y <= 0.49) return 0.788 + (0.792 - 0.788) * ((y - 0.28) / (0.49 - 0.28));
if (y <= 0.71) return 0.792 + (0.806 - 0.792) * ((y - 0.49) / (0.71 - 0.49)); // Shoulder crease peak
return 0.806 + (0.778 - 0.806) * Math.min(1, (y - 0.71) / (0.842 - 0.71)); // Beltline tumblehome
}
// Auto-hide internal door trim & scuff plates when doors are closed (< 0.008 rad) for 100% flush exterior

state.doorTrimMeshesL.forEach((m) => { m.visible = leftOpenVis; });
