Ooooo interesting. Yeah, it's Sarah leaving a message on the answering machine that tips off the T800 and she wouldn't have done that if Kyle hadn't been following her.
It's possible the terminator would've looked through the house to confirm the identity of the woman he'd just killed and discovered that it was Ginger (in which case he would've been back on Sarah's trail). But at the very least, events would've played out differently and Sarah must survive each iteration or there would never be a John and Skynet would have no reason to send the T800.

Re: The T-800 in The Terminator would have failed at killing Sarah Connor.
