I removed the journal using diskutil. The partition I wanted to shrink

At first I tried:

(parted) resize 5 0.344 36000

If I remember correctly, I used a similar syntax.

since I read that the start point had to remain the same. But it
produced:

        No Implementation: Sorry, HFS cannot be resized that way yet.
        Error: Updating the HFS wrapper has failed.

Which parted did you use? The one on the Gentoo install CD's includes patches for hfs+ support (according to the red box on http:// www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-ppc.xml? part=1&chap=4#doc_chap2), maybe some other versions don't.
